Great Warm Up For Better Bowling Release

[@brandonhuggins1736]

I’m not gonna lie, the tip you gave about keeping the v pointed down lane was the perfect cue to keep me inside the ball. Bravo. Got a more consistent ball reaction because I can consistently make that mind body connection.

[@mattgeiger8247]

Same for me, I can get more consistent revolutions now

[@goodgacha36]

Sorry, im new to bowling, but what V do you mean sir?

[@RedGalaxyFishbone]

@@goodgacha36idk whats it called in english, but its the V between your pointer and middle finger. And u should aim that at the pins when releasing the ball.

​​@@goodgacha36 the V is between your middle finger and ring finger, you wanna point those at the middle pin

[@thomastaylor2513]

For a while there I didn't think you was gonna release that ball. And that little warm up was taught to me by our teachers in our instruction class over 50 years ago.😢

[@codynaglitsch6316]

Watching most of your videos and this is really helpful with my skills in my AA league. Thank you so much guys. Appreciate it.

[@aang6421]

Mannn, just what I needed. I went bowling last night to work on my slide and swinging my arm back for power. Went from 12mph to 16mph. Issue is, at that speed, I'm struggling to keep my hand on the inside to properly get rotation on the ball.

[@kevinscarborough9982]

Are you using your legs for speed, or are you forcing your arm and muscling the ball?

[@aang6421]

@@kevinscarborough9982 hard for me to honestly tell. I'm still trying to figure it out. So probably still muscling

[@lingshot2483]

IT WORKED!

[@JackHurley-n6t]

Just wondering who has a technique that is a little bit different I keep my hand above the ball , keep the logo facing the pins , take big steps and throw my ball 10-15 mph on average, and I have a 15 pound that doesn’t have the biggest hook potential when I throw it that’s because I keep it between the 2nd and 3rd arrows and sometimes 1st and 2nd arrows And I know this won’t help everyone but I think about the arrows and then the pins I do use this technique for most spares though

[@SOD1224]

I use a lot more wrist for my throw, and i only use two fingers for the bowling ball

If you didn't want to use the approach, can you legally bowl this way in the PBA?

[@CurtisL8.3066]

Yep

[@kevinscarborough9982]

Yes. And sanctioned leagues. There us no USBC rule about the number of steps yiu should take.

[@TADMG]

@Kevin Scarborough Awesome, thanks. I am disabled and bowl in a league, but fairly certain it's not sanctioned. I would never be good enough to bowl professionally, nowhere near it. But, part of me always wondered if it was technically possible if someone with low mobility could.

How do you make your wrist not keep rotating if you didn't bring a wristband or a wrist supporter

[@H0TD0G5]

Will try, keep u updated

[@H0TD0G5]

Did work

[@codynik123]

What should we do with the thumb and the fingers in the ball? How does the ball being drilled affect the fingers in the ball when swinging? Release grip or thumb pressing against the ball with the nail?

[@CurtisL8.3066]

Grip pressure should be minimal, think of holding it like a baby bird. Not too easy not too hard. Just right. Pitches affect comfort, stretching or reducing your span can affect ball roll. Thumbnail should push into the slug with tape tight enough to almost push the ball off your hand

[@dustymanjuiice4445]

The thumb slides out first before the 2 fingers once the thumb comes out turn the doorknob, and give that ball some spin... but the sooner you get it on the boards the better.. dont want to get into the habbit of dropping the ball or tossing it.. you essentially want to see it Glide

[@bennysantiago8357]

How can I keep on throwing What up true twisting my arm to the left too? Much I continue doing it doing it. Even when I'm throwing it in my Bowling league.

[@yourstylefitnessandhealth]

The hardest part of the release is keeping that hand inside during the swing, Keeping the elbow in-against the hip helps me !

[@chriscastro5177]

Are we supposed to leave our thumb partially inside thumb hole? Seems from here that’s how your doing it

[@jill6225]

IT WORKED THANKS MAN!!

[@SalmanHamudXD]

I really have to say that bowling is a good sport and 2 years ago I played bowling for the first time got samuel’s birthday

[@ryanperez5758]

What do u guys mean by keeping ur hand on the inside ?

[@cliffkemp]

For advanced bowling, it means your hand is slightly inside if you are look from behind and seeing the hand position relative to the centerline of the ball. As you start to release the ball and your hand starts to rotate from inside to slightly outside, it acts as a windup to create positive lift at an angle to generate power. The more your finger are closer to 10 o'clock at the time of lift, the more axis rotation you will have to create a curve to the ball.... not to be confused with rotating around the thumb which creates 'spin' and not turn. Ideally, you want your ball to be 'flipped' (point at which it has fully gripped the lane and turning end over end) when it hits the head pin. It's like a punch... fist hits while accelerating, less power aka... ball is still sliding. Hitting after full extension, power is used up, for the most part aka... ball is rolled out and hits flat.

Great video!!

[@Journeyto300]

[@mr.tuckers2848]

The 14lb ball I was fitted with at the shop is too heavy and I cannot get my hand below it to support the ball causing me to drop the ball straight down next to my right foot even before I can release it the proper way.

[@cicispizzalakecharles]

Start with a lighter ball. I went from a 10 to a 13 bc my proshop operator wouldnt sell me anything lighter. It forced me to step up to the plate. Within 3 months i was moving myself up to a 14. The next ball i buy will likely be a 15.

[@018deandre]

What weight do you use?

[@nonamev563]

Ring finger or middle finger leave the ball first?

[@ABrokenSociety]

I can't use my whole thumb. I cock my wrist to the left and barely rim the thumb hole with the tip of my thumb... For lack of a better way of putting it. I just can't cup the ball when using my thumb, either forearm strength is low or my wrist is weak. Been bowling for 17 years, I'm currently 34, and my league average is 207. I haven't had a 300 yet. /: Or an 800. My bests are 288 game and 774 three game series.

[@thesamsquatch5224]

So you're still giving a little flick of the wrist but you're not going around the ball I need to work on this

[@CurtisL8.3066]

It’s cup and uncup at release. You will always get around it a little bit, zero rotation makes it go end over end and will never hook toward the pocket.

[@Level3workbench]

The way your holding that ball it didn’t seem like it was 15 lb. Was it

[@ModernDayRenaissanceMan]

I never held on the inside (always 3 quarter drill & to the outside). I won Bowler of the Year & was 11th in the State of Florida Division 3 by age 15 in just 2 years of bowling. My avg went from 115 to 157 to 171 in 3 years. I had to quit since everything was stolen from me. I would play 3 games a year for a few & averaged 204 in those practice games. I havent bowled in 13 years & Im 100000% sure I could roll a 200 tomorrow. Everyone is different. I also never had a spare ball. I learned to flatten my wrist to stop the hook & that let me take out the 7 pins (Im a lefty) My changing that same wrist angle I could control the hook even more I pick up splits. Add speed. Reduce hook etc. It was all hitting marks & feel. Do what works for you. There is no correct way.

[@scottpentek928]

You’re left handed you probably play the same line every lefty plays and no matter what the pattern you still play there so not really hard to shoot 200

[@UhKimboze]

I mean yes to an extent. There are things that are better in some situations vs others. But yeah! It sounds like you're killin it man, good job! :)

When you do the backswing do you squeeze in your ring and middlefingers, or is it complete loose? I think i get tendon irritation because squeeze little to much

[@canepamediasolutions2375]

You guys always say 'up the back' but at the release your hand always releases at the side.

he says up the back but he still twist the wrist to the right on release. I have never understood this explanation.

[@Mote78]

Same here.

[@UhKimboze]

It's cuz it's pretty hard to get it perfectly behind it when you let go. If you do that, the ball won't curve at all.

[@Mote78]

@@UhKimboze That’s true. I can throw my hook ball straight by coming straight up the back. When you look at their release you see that they actually roll the ball at about a 45 degree angle, however they don’t start at that spot. They start inside or behind the ball. I think that’s why they say “stay behind the ball.”

I’ve been bowling since 2004 and this is a myth. I average over 200 coming around the ball. They used to say pro’s go up the back and amateurs come around the ball. It’s a bunch of BS

[@michlo3393]

I tend to agree with that, I've always come around and I'm sure that is a result of using plastic house balls for years and having my palm at damn near 9 o'clock on the release just to hit the pocket flush. I had to really adjust once I got an actual ball that reacts, but even then, I'm still coming around, though not as much.
