Wish you'd shown a deep inside shot. I've really just mastered walking up the boards and have trouble knowing exactly how much to turn the hips, etc toward where you think the direction of the target arrow will be when you get to the foul line.

@DoRayMeFa Ай бұрын

I think the most concise advice is to thoroughly get to know the *feel* of where your arm is, at the furthest point of the backswing. That position, together with the sighting target, are what determine where the ball will go if your forward swing is in a straight line. The furthest point on the backswing is like the notch of a rifle sight, and the target arrow is like the post at the far end of the rifle barrel. Align the two, and you'll hit your target. The skill is in *feeling* exactly where your hand is, at the furthest point of the backswing, since you can't see it.

This is excellent advise that I will apply to my game.

I love your videos. You have helped in alot of ways. Especially targeting and approach setups. I am constantly wanting to learn. Keep the videos coming. Merry Christmas!

Thanks for the info regarding setup. But, one thing that is not clear. If I’m shooting at a 10 pin, and my feet hips and shoulders are pointing toward my target does that mean I’m not walking straight to the foul line but towards the target instead ?

How do you create launch angle if you always start with your arm parallel to the approach and also keep your swing within the same plane throughout the approach? Wouldn't you always release it straight up the boards doing it that way? Does your swing change direction at the point of release?

@ArcticLemming00 Ай бұрын

This is a good question, as my bowling coach encouraged the push out to deal with opening up angles. So, I am also interested in the answer. But initial thoughts, though, are that since you should start aligned toward your target, you should finish with your body oriented toward your target as well. That would mean a swing that follows your body will end up angled out toward your target. I know some folks encourage a few board drift (to the right for righties) so that you are ensuring you are moving toward your target and thus pointing your chest that way at release.

@timanders3151 24 күн бұрын

@@ArcticLemming00 sorry, but this is bad advice. A right hander should never drift right, you would be walking into your swing. The swing path must go inside out the further left you get. You push further inside, create the figure 8 and let the body orientation (watch any right hander get deep, the hips are turned to the right gutter) and swing path determine launch angle. The body must get out of the way of the swing, if you're walking into the swing you would unintentionally create outside in at the bottom. Hand goes to the outside of the ball and direction becomes difficult.

I am a recently converted two handed bowler. I struggle with consistent targeting accuracy. When I clear my hips should my focus be to bring my swing path inwards with my hip that is clearing to keep the ball close to it or should I focus on maintaining the original swing path before I cleared my hips?

@BowlingHeyday Ай бұрын

Mike M. always had a good swing plane. His technique of the push away is very downward but as the swing gets past the hip going back, he is free wheeling it but helps it get a decent peak. Then the forward swing he just waits for the ball to come off the thumb and a counter clockwise hand/ wrist exit the fingers at about 70 degrees tilt. He has the option to back off this wrist/ hand action by less projection of ball into lane. All of the reading of the ball is down lane about 50 feet from head pin.

Question - I'm a low rev down & in league bowler, & i have a problem when i have to move left later in the set. When i move left on the approach & keep my eye right to open up the angle, my initial static open alignment as well as my eye placement causes me to walk right instead of walking straight down my start line, parallel with the lane, & consequently i then come around the ball & pull the shot left. I tend to walk to where my eye is looking & i sometimes do the same on 10 pin shots. Any tips on how can i open up my hips & shoulders yet still retain a straight approach?

I went bowling recently during the holidays,, I'm not a bowler by all means , haven't bowled in 15 years. I hit 9 spares in a row. Shot 140. . I think I really could improve if I take it seriously

@johnrichardson6033 Ай бұрын

I’m a no thumb bowler. Should these setup tips help with my accuracy? I usually struggle with consistently hitting my targets. I stand around 23-25. Aim for about 15. Then down lane at about 8.

Machuga is playing up the boards just like bowling should be. He is in such good time that the ball floats off of the hand. Thumb comes out at ankle while fingers lift ball to arrows. It is easier to read lane patterns by crossing as less boards as possible. An effective roll on the ball gets the pins off the deck. That seemed about 15 -16 mph. The revs is about 14. That will keep any bowler in the hunt across the house from game to game.

@Pend2027 Ай бұрын

“Thumb comes out at ankle” great advice. Many are unaware of this tidbit.

@brianschumaker5912 Ай бұрын

My problem is pulling the ball to the left. For instance, i can throw 3 in a row and get the ball to go to the right. Then a flat out pull and miss my mark by 5 to 7 boards.

@iaretzeee Ай бұрын

same, its almost like my right shoulder drops and caves inwards and my ball just goes way left, any tips?

@NickStAndre Ай бұрын

Do you pull the ball down on your backswing? Sometimes that can cause you to tug it left

@iaretzeee Ай бұрын

@@NickStAndre yep i think thats the issue, i guess from an unnatural swing plane (2handed rh) - im trying to figure out if a bent arm or straight arm backswing is more optimal, gotta play around for sure! appreciate the insight though 🫡❤️

@NickStAndre Ай бұрын

@@iaretzeee Either way, you gotta keep your hand under the ball on release to get the successful yoyo release which most people (even 1h) do by bending the elbow near the end of their release. I say whichever swing is easier for you to keep your hand underneath the ball is the move.

It should work for them as well. Their backswing will just be shorter

@40beretta1 Ай бұрын

4"C"..... consistent setup; Consistent Arm swing: Consistent approach and Consistent release. There is a little tidbit that is NEVER discussed on the approach... the fade. If your target is 12 board... and you line up on, say 15... you will or better fade to the Left (RH release)... and slide on say 22 - 25 and release across 15 and extend the slide to 10 for to hook back and roll at 12... if you are a high rev bowler.... I'm shure you know this little known fade... this is especially important for spares

@Pend2027 Ай бұрын

Huh?

@guyrich6467 Ай бұрын

why not line up on 22 to start with?

@chrisadams7612 Ай бұрын

That's why I don't line just with my starting point. I walk to a point at the fowl line. Knowing that my slot is where my right foot would be if I was standing up at the line

@colddekstar 19 күн бұрын

If you drift that much, you just have to work it into your approach, it's different for everyone I'm a high rev bowler, I hardly drift, I line up on say 30 and end on 32, often I have to wrap the ball return, so I do move to 40+, but if I'm going straight that doesn't really change My league partner is a low rev bowler, he drifts about 10 boards, he lines up on 10 and winds up on 20, I've seen him drift as much as 18 boards before The point is drifting isn't really a guarantee at all, it's not something you work in, it's just part of how you move, if you know where you end up and where you start from, it doesn't matter how you get there, as long as the swing and release are always the same

@Jason_P Ай бұрын

Most pros today have their hips WIDE OPEN for every shot, even if they're playing straight up the lane. Their hips are pointed straight at the gutter when they play up the lane and their swing comes across their body. This goes against what you say here to have the hips lined up with the target. Please explain why they do this.
