Best PBA Style of all Time
« on: March 13, 2010, 10:49:40 AM »

Hello to you all:
I was looking at my old PBA vhs tapes this weekend and spend few hours remembering everything from Weber(PDW) Monacelli, Aulby, Roth, WRW Jr, Holman, Webb,  and those guys….any ways, in more than one of those videos  Mr. Bo Burton and even Earl Anthony agree on something, they both said that the best style of all time.. the best hand-eye coordination belonged to Marshall Holman do you guys agree on this..????
Personally I think that for right hander style it would be between Holman and PDW and for left hander…definitely Parker Bhon III, but that’s just my opinion.

Best stylists LH PBIII & Aulby.  RH David Ozio.  Those are the ones for me that are on top of the heap.

Pete Weber has an amazing swing and release you have got to give it to him.

I would also agree that David Ozio has the best physical game to ever hit the lanes. I would then say of course PB3...


  As far as having no grip pressure and using gravity 100%, definitly Ozio! I would be anything he could bowl 30-40 games in his prime and still be going no problem because of his effortless swing. Plain Awsome...............

In terms of hand eye coordination I have no idea. I would guess Walter Ray Williams Jr considering the titles and the longevity of his success it is hard to dispute. That and the world titles in horseshoes with the nickname Deadeye.

I''m right handed and I would say hands down on either side it is Parker Bohn III in terms of form. Very smooth, great revs, not much else you can say.

Marshall Holman form not so great to watch, especially starting in his approach.

…… you can't  add a physics term to a bowling term and expect it to mean something.

I too agree that Ozio was smooth and had a great fundamental game. But their is another that some have not gotten to see from the past. Jim Stefanich was another. I watched him bowl the world open back in 75-76 and he had the front 8 when others couldn't hit the hole. There was so much oil, guys like Salvino had trouble getting the ball to the head pin.

How long before this thread turns in to the WORST style
of all time???  Let the Scroggins bashing begin!!!
Nah, just kidding.

I'll give my votes for best style to PDW and PB3, those
guys are just super smooth and a pleasure to watch!!!
