What Do You Love About the Sport?

Favorite Bowling Memory
| There are sooo many… Here is a short list
Winning 2021 $10k Holiday Doubles in St Louis with Matt Ogle Having to throw the first strike in the 10th to win my first PBA regional title to defeat Pete Weber Making a run in the 2017 USBC Masters and ultimately finishing 9-12th being high lefty for the event. |
Who is Your Favorite Bowler?
| Tommy jones has been my favorite bowler for as long as I can remember He was the first guy I watched on TV and thinking how does he get it to hook like that.
In terms of modeling my game after. I would say Jason Couch because he was the first lefty I remember watching him hook the ball. |
