Joining me on the podcast today is Chris VanAkkeren. Chris and his Nicholas J’s Pro Shop team rolled an impressive 3250 team series at the USBC Open Championships in Reno.
Chris breaks down the team’s game plan and preparation heading into the tournament, what they saw once they got on the lanes in Reno, and how they adjusted as the event unfolded.
He also explains one key factor he believes many bowlers are overlooking this year, and dives into the major differences between this year’s pattern and last year’s conditions.
Chris also shares what equipment he had in his bag, why those choices mattered, and what—if anything—he would do differently if he had the chance to bowl the tournament again.
