Coach "O"
I once again want to thank you for your time and knowledge you shared with me last year during our coaching session. My bowling has become more consistent and as a matter of fact my team won our Oklahoma City OPEN tourney this year! I bowled my best ever 9 game consistent stint: Team: 235-259-203; Doubles: 257,198,256; Singles:254,255,194 for a 2111 total. Using the keys from you and your book, allowed me to be consistent and really feel what the lanes are telling me. I am becoming more of a feel bowler and with the skills, knowledge, and equipment, I am matching up better and better every outing. Thanks!!!-Walter Wilson Jr. -03/17/2011

 -First Pitch: BV's Rubin runner-up at Vegas prep event 2011.  Haley Rubin didn't have high expectations prior to her competition in the recent North Pointe High School Bowling Championships. Haley received coaching prior to the event by Gary Oatis, USBC Silver Instructor, Las Vegas, NV.  When the tournament concluded, the Brandon Valley senior finished second in a field of over 170, winning $7,500 in scholarship money.   She also got a new Storm bowling ball that was selected by Coach Oatis. He fitted the ball with a layout that matched Haley's unique style of play.
"I just hadn't been bowling very good before I went there. I just had a new ball drilled and it was awesome. I used it the entire tournament and I didn't have to make any big adjustments on the lanes. And I don't know why, but I wasn't nervous at all," she said.  http://bowlingdigital.eu/bowl/bld/19/845   
UPDATE: 04/30/2012 -  Haley Rubin-Sioux Falls, South Dakota: Hey Gary! I just wanted to let you know I bowled in the state tournament this weekend and bowled my high game of 289 (8 pin in the tenth frame) and a 711, my first 700! I ended up first in singles and first in scratch all events by 152 pins. Thank you for all of the help you have given me.

 Walter "Wil" Wilson, Oklahoma:   Coach Gary, I just wanted to thank you for your tips, coaching, and your book, which has taught me so much.

Joseph Hart   January 20 at 8:10am: I bought the book on Amazon and it came last week. I haven't read it yet, but I did glance through a couple things before I left for bowling on Monday in the release section because I felt like I was struggling in that area. After working with my release and timing in game one, I bowled my 6th 300 in game two. I can't wait to see what happens when I can read the entire book!

I am loving this book! I truly enjoy the way it is formatted and written, it's very easy to read and understand. It's like having a wonderful collection of amazing insider tips, all priceless and, best of all, that you haven't heard before. There's so much compiled in this book, for sure there's something you don't know. So, regardless of your current level, read this book and you will improve. Seriously. 
  
  By Blake Paris - Rating 5 stars *****
Gary's book is a true success!!! I ordered Gary's book about a month ago and since then I've bowled multiple 299's and multiple 800 series' (804 and 813). At 17 years old I currently average 239 on house patterns and 197 on sport patterns and even at my caliber I still learned some valuable information from this book. I recommend this book to anyone who truly wants to become a True Bowler!!

     Alex Eng - January 11 at 8:50pm Gary,Thank you for the advice you gave me!!!! It has improved my game by 70 pins a set. I can stay down at the line without forcing the ball!
        
 Brian Hirsch - Hey Ill be back in Vegas next week for the TOC and hope to see ya and I bowled 247-279-214-290=1030 tonight (monday) - Previously shot his 300 game, and 800 series 12/2009.  A True Bowler!   
      
    Al Fenner Gary- Thanks for your help last week in restoring my confidence on my timing. That was first hand knowledge and the best advice I've had in years. It really made me think before each shot. Opened my eyes in that I hadn't seen in years with my game. You are wise my friend... Thanks so much. I recommend this book to Every bowler of ALL levels.    
         
                    - Stiedl rolls 812.web-posted Friday, October 30, 2009, Kenai, Alaska:  PENINSULA CLARION-Randy Stiedl, on his march toward an 800 series, started off with games of 277 and 257 to give him a two-game total of 534, needing a 266 game to capture his first 800 series. It was just three weeks ago that Gary showed me how to control ball speed by moving on the approach. This was pivotal to my success given the fact that during the second game, frame six and seven to be exact, I left back-to-back 10 pins. When this occurred I moved on the approach. This slowed my ball speed just enough so that I could continue "stringing strikes."  I finished the game with a 278.

          Nibert, Alaskan State Senior Champion
 

Soldotna, Alaskian bowler Chuck Nibert averaged 237 en-route to capturing the Alaska State Seniors Champion ship. During the 2nd half of the event "D" division, bowler Chuck Nibert leading by a comfortable margin, won the scratch event with scores of 224, 245, 256, 258, 236, 203 for a 1422 scratch series. Along with his victory Chuck will receive an entry into the 2010 United States Congress Senior Championships, which will be held in Reno, Nevada in late June. Chuck Nibert was the winner of the Senior Nationals for his division last July in Reno 2009 after receiving several days of coaching by USBC Silver Caach Gary Oatis of Las Vegas, NV.

A very special Congratulations to Eric Thoma for his first 300 at the Gold Coast Lanes, of Las Vegas, a real True Bowler! 
     
Congratulations to JOSH BROOKS of Red Rock Lanes!!!! Josh owned the 43 foot PBA pattern  to take the SHARK deep oil tournament with Games of 201, 212, and 229! Josh trained with me Saturday prior to competing!  There is nothing better than coaching someone who comes to you with the desire to succeed! Josh you are a True Bowler!
    
Gary I want u to know that I have finally started making progress with the shot that you taught me. In practice today I shot a 745. That has been my absolute highest ever since I have been in Vegas. Today I actually figured out that by changing my position in the release, it actually allowed the ball to go longer. I'm not bending at the waste as much as I used to. I am able to spot my mark further down the lane this way. Anyway, if the ball even gets close to the pocket, it carries. I am simply amazed. I'm so excited I don't know what to do.
I just want to thank you for the help you have given me thus far.
Thanks again,

Andrew
