Hey there, love the vids! Certified Brunswick A2 technician here-

In my experiences, pins bounce considerably more in A's versus A2's. The Pit cushion and curtain assembly are both mounted facing slightly downward in an A2 in order to pass some of the energy into the fiberglass pit boards, which also makes it a near guarantee that the pins also ricochet downward into the dampening carpet. Brunswick Model A pinsetters have a pit cushion (also known as a 'hockey stick") that's mounted vertically along with the pin curtain. It was designed this way on the Model A's due to the pit boards being made of wood, they couldn't handle the momentum transfer without being damaged, so it was intentionally designed more vertical to NOT absorb all of that energy.

If there is ever a pin bouncing on one side of the machine in the back corner, shoot at that side. Brent's strategy was spot on there

MITCH!!!! Not only do I love seeing this specific video (Mitch shoots at hard spares) but seeing him compete against someone is AMAZING!

Mitch is going to have a 100% ten pin conversion rate on tour next year

7:30 not me actually screaming “COME ONNNN” at my phone screen 😂

Brent vids are the best vids. Add in Mitch and we have Internet gold.

Brent is such a touchy, Feely guy 😂 Love it! Mitch was so hesitant on the cheek kiss 😂

"Livin rent free and pin free" I love it!

The laws of physics state that your odds of making a spare are greatly increased by making contact with a pin.

Love the split challenges, this should be a monthly at least series.

I really loved this one. Brent’s always a gem, and seeing the grind to try and make it happen was really gripping.

12:56 Sean Rash made the 7-10 that way. he hit the 10 pin so lightly that is slid across the deck and fell off far enough for the pin to rotate and the head of the 10 pin hit the 7 pin and it fell over. Only time I've seen the 7-10 made with ball and pin alone.

A2 cushions bounce pins out a MILLION times better than A's. As a mechanic I prefer A style, helps wear on the carpets (as well as just simpler overall) with the angle and the way the ball hits but as a bowler, for pinaction? A2 style ALL day. Once I saw you were at Seneca and not Northrock I knew itd be a MUCH tougher make!

I worked a sweat just watching you guys shooting so many balls in short period of time! MANY close calls. Surprised none were made.

The pit cushions are different on an 'A' and an "A2'. The 'A' cushion sits more straight up verses the angled cushion of the 'A2'. The pin curtain on an 'A2' has more of a bow in it verses the Model 'A'.

Now we need the Greek Church and B4 videos here 😂

Love mitch and Brent together lol good stuff

[nordattack]

At the house I bowl at on many lanes the curtain in the back is missing revealing the horizontal bar. If a pin hits that bar it shoots like crazy in any random direction!
I have seen splits made and pins flying all the way to the foul line. I made an 8-10 by the 10 hitting that bar and flying into the 8.

I just sat here and watched a video of complete failure - and loved every second of it. You guys were having fun - while also doing some really fine shotmaking.

Great to see Mitch back. When you did the 7-10 challenge at Northrock Mitch made the first one on Lane 6.

Looks like the machines have the cable trigger rake drop which isn't too common! The Model A has always been my favorite pinsetter. Not too slow yet not too quick to were it would wear down parts and is extremely efficient when well maintained. I hope this place keeps those pinsetters running for more decades to come!
