Keys to a Good Release

[@TimmyDFrost]

Fred is the best KZbin Bowling Coach I've seen yet.

[@angelsoftheseventhdawn]

This is the best release video, by far. It's all so clear now. This will definitely help me with the hook.

[@darnizy]

Worked with this man first hand. Fantastic bowler and coach!!! And yes the shots were perfecto

[@AdenR8]

i agree im a 215 ave bowler and i still love watching these videos

[@poeticism]

This is a good video. A lot of people have the wrong idea of it all being in the wrist and releasing in the form of a handshake. Really it's just clearing the thumb and turning the middle and ring fingers. This has helped me to get maximum rotations out of my ball.

[@Bigtruck2007]

This is the best instructional video I have ever seen

[@portagee]

thanks finally somebody that can explain things

[@darnizy]

Worked with him and the crew in Alaska years ago. They were fantastic

[@FloridaRaider]

I"m a complete beginner. I didn't know you only move the fingers 2 inches to hook the ball. Thanks for the tip.

[@Icepaxx]

@tiatrips its never a bad time to learn in sports. you can always get better. I work at a bowling alley and I love sitting in with the kids on our saturday morning league and listening to the wisdom of the coaches on the beginner stuff; it can be very helpful.

[@genebrooks9409]

Just got back into bowling 1994 last league. Was 200 avg bowler. I tried this release last night and it worked very well. I still "short arm" some of my strike shots. Your video added to my comeback knowledge thanks

[@manzskies]

clear my doubts..many ways of releasing.GREAT ADVISE!!

[@s1l3nth4rb1ng3r]

This is what I was looking for, thanks!

[@agotic]

great tips I must say,didn't think I would find such a good video.

[@KB24ts6]

the pressure on the pointer finger is a great tip! if i get less revs, i just remember that. cause usually my wrist...thbbtbtbbt

[@EvandroCarnero]

0:36 The release by flicking the fingers, will generate higher RPMs and more consistent ball motion as opposed to coming off the side.

[@clinic12balla]

ive been practicing alot and ive got the three finger spin down i just hold my hand on the side of the ball and my game has improved alot...

[@veralau93]

cant wait to get back on the lanes and follow this tips :) thanku :) and i hopes it upzzz my score.

[@cbethea48]

The money shot works for me. My avg is about 175-180. I like this release because it is simple and it goes with my stroker style. I think some would say the drawback is that I track over my finger and thumbs holes a lot, though.

[@andrewaustin7110]

Excellent video.

[@joepic85]

one of the few dudes that knows what hes talking about in his videos

[@tiatrips]

@DJXRyde I'm at 16 mph, rounded down. I usually have to throw it around that speed for the purpose of getting it down the lane. But I have a natural hook so I use that to my advantage.

[@itshimkevinkim]

i had the same problem all you gotta do is get used to actually using all your fingers practice throwing it straight and them throw in the turn its all about practice

[@MrPs103]

@davidhindu not all expert village videos are bad. haven't seen all bowling videos so i can't speak for those, but the ones for auto repair are excellent.

[@kimjones3298]

Could you show how to release the ball up the back like a lot of the pro bowlers use?

[@sacking7600]

How do you clear the thumb without dropping the ball

[@MiguelAngel-lv2dx]

I found an awesome collection of videos that may help you at Berts bowls guide

[@TavgaHawramy]

You are impressive teacher

[@nallepuh6969]

@WarOfHell He doesn't want to make us loose hope with his perfect shots.

[@misturdummie]

using two fingers would mean you're a two handed bowler, in replacement of the thumb, you would use the opposite hand to hold the ball in place until you release, and follow through, if you do not use a second hand to hold it, your ball would typically be loose and move around allowing an inconsistent throw

[@joepic85]

I would love to take lessons one day. Even though im 200 ave. you can always learn from these guys. Tiger Woods still takes golf lessons

[@tiatrips]

Is it bad that I'm at 16 mph and 520 RPM and still learning things about release?

[@system0Fhonor]

I hit strikes with stright release I never a hook shot untill now :p

[@clinic12balla]

Im a two fingered bowler and i have a hammer vibe, and im trying to learn how to throw it with three fingers... but its not working ..

[@lanjoe8274]

i like this

[@africanchina1]

doesnt rotating the fingers make the ball swerve????

[@navysaxplayer]

This is sometimes true. In this case it's not. This man is Fred Bordon, pretty dang good bowler still and probably the best coach in the game. Who else would you get to coach Team USA. ; ) Yes, Team USA.

[@ElvisJankus]

nice

[@Retnaworthington]

I Wish I Was Vincent Hannley

[@zam626]

the title is misleading. i click on this video and BOWLING comes up. wth!

[@kenny1026]

@jerseyman1000 try to put 3 fingers then. just like you, i only put 2 fingers before, but later i change it to 3. it becomes more stable. try it ^^

[@JesseLeiker]

@electraglider01 lol. Nice.

[@iBrettowski]

timing is a huge part...

[@briancurren7033]

This guy is teaching stuff from the seventies! "shake hands with the pins". That type of release really won't give you that big hook your looking for. Stay underneath the ball and pull up.

[@mwilliams6242]

+Brian Curren Some things never go out of style..

[@TheTIMWING]

+M Williams Brian is one of the many young male students I have had over the years that just wants to big hook, and nothing more!

[@briancurren7033]

+TheTIMWING couldn't be more wrong, I don't throw a huge hook but I know the game has evolved beyond what he's teaching

[@jayboek2854]

true...old way of teaching...yet its the easiest one to learn. The modern release is about impossible. Very hard to do. Probably only 5 to 10 % of all bowlers can accomplish the yo yo release.

[@crio2366]

These are the Basic Fundamentals. Not teaching cranker hi rev release here. If you can do that great for you. You've grown beyond the basics. But doesn't make this any less true for the 90% out there that do it for fun and just want to improve consistency!

[@DJXRyde]

@tiatrips I dunno...is 16 mph good for you? lmao. I throw like 21 average, with no hook tho. Trying to hook has got me messed up...I'd rather just toss it fast n straight. LMAO And about this video...the title - is epic. LMAO.

[@masteircheef]

@T00MuchL4g helped me o.0

[@kblackmer100]

I like a lot of the videos you guys put up, this is really great for a lot of bowlers at any average. If you get a chance can you watch a couple videos of my channel and let me know what you guys think I should work on? its kblackmer100 is my channel. thank you much.
