[4] At the 2019 Pan American Games in Peru, Butturff and Team USA teammate Nick Pate earned a gold medal in doubles.

During qualifying for this event, Jakob broke the Pan American Games record for a six-game block with a score of 1,516.

[7] While he had no PBA Tour victories in the 2017 season, Butturff did win the title at the QubicaAMF World Cup on November 11 in Hermosillo, Mexico.

He qualified as the #1 seed, leading his next-closest competitor by an astounding 617 pins, but he lost the televised championship match to Rhino Page, 256–222.

Butturff joined PBA Hall of Famer Earl Anthony as the only two bowlers to be the top qualifier in back-to-back U.S.

[10] Butturff qualified as the #1 seed for the first two tournaments of the 2019 PBA Tour season, joining Johnny Petraglia, Earl Anthony and Walter Ray Williams Jr. as the only players to be the top qualifier in three consecutive PBA Tour events (going back to the final event of the 2018 season).

[11] He captured his sixth PBA Tour title and first major at the 2019 USBC Masters, qualifying as the #1 seed for the stepladder finals and defeating Mykel Holliman in the championship match for the win.

This was a non-title made-for-TV event featuring the 2019 season's top eight money leaders, and was broadcast November 3 on Fox.

[14] Butturff cashed a career-high $204,380 during the season, and finished runner-up to Jason Belmonte in the 2019 PBA Player of the Year voting.

With this emotional win (the first following the death of his mother in November 2020), Butturff claimed his eighth career PBA Tour title.

[19] Butturff qualified for the May 20–21 PBA Super Slam, a special event intended to feature the five major championship winners in the 2023 season.
