Creating different releases using a clock mentality.

[@Bill-uo6cm]

Nothing worked for me until I saw that CLOCK. I can now BOWL. That clock was a light bulb that went off for me the moment I saw it. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@ytrue483]

Thanks!

[@BARBELLS-AND-BUDS]

I haven't bowled since I was 10. I'm 49 now. I'm trying to relearn bowling. I really appreciate this video. I was having exactly this problem where I wasn't getting the ball to come back when I threw it from left to right down late. Can't wait to get to the alley and try out some new stuff. Hopefully not messing up my wrist in the process

[@howarddunbar7317]

Thank you for that insight, did realize about the thumb.

[@405adam]

I use to throw the ball 13.5 mph with too much revs causing it to go left every time. I tried coming directly up the back and was decent at it. It increased my ball speed but the ball would go into the roll early and have no energy for the backend. There was no room for error. Then I tried turning my hand to the side, almost extreme and now my ball is around 16 mph with a lot of axis rotation. It glides through the front easily while retaining a lot of energy for the backend. This is been revolutionary for me. The ball never goes left on me and the pins explode now

[@lindarogers8497]

Thanks JR it's a confort to see the clock ⏰️ at work in bowling 😊

[@sirvenomik]

watched this video in 2020 watched again in 2022 made a huge difference in my game still need more practice to get out of the ball at the line instead of lofting but made me a better bowler thank you

[@LarryManiccia]

Very well explained and demonstrated JR. Amazing how that ball tears to the left when you get your hand around it. The hard part now is learning how to replicate that release. I have always had trouble playing the inside line because I have more of a 12 o'clock thumb position. I'll have to practice what you demoed here and see how it works.

[@johntopper9456]

Very good video, thanks for the tip.

[@hex191]

I haven't done bowling for 2 months 😯😯

[@armandoregadas2219]

I’ve been Bowling for about 3 Months. Very informative Video. Thanks Man

[@rodneyhankins6417]

Thank You Raymond, I was trying to bowl left and it kept bowing straight I could not understand until now. I will try it next Friday at practice.

[@bobbyscott3825]

great info.. I've struggled in the last year. I'm very interested in getting my (original) side roll back Ive somehow created a habit of being in the back of the ball instead getting around. This video gets me closer. So I can get back to the SASBA tour to compete better. Sincerely Thank You !

[@MasterGunz84]

Will definitely try it when we get back on the lanes... Great info and content ✌🏽👍🏽😊👌🏽✌🏽

[@kevinscarborough9982]

I have used this method and if you work at it, it works. Trust me. Big improvement.

[@MasterGunz84]

Kevin Scarborough thanks 🙏🏼 😊🙏🏼 will definitely try it!! Cheers 🍻

[@FearTheWeird300]

If we do

[@GalinPanchev]

Very interesting approach, I'm gonna try thinking this way.

[@joeboo6684]

Great analogy JR. you could not of explained that any better. Looking forward to working on that!

[@jabarriq_]

I need to practice. I really have an issue with being consistent on hooking the ball.

[@pwrshots]

makes it look so easy.

[@curtisjackson3445]

What about the boards or arrows you were looking at to create that angle with the release

[@laforrestroxbury9909]

Still I have to work at it! But I get it! playing inside, the hardest part of bowling besides that dang 10 pin! lol

[@BettieBurton]

Helpful

[@williemorrison5006]

Jr is a 45 degree release is at 11 o'clock whe the thumb exit the ball

[@jimherb1310]

Jr, I'm a beginner bowler. Would you please explain in the most rudimentary form on how to curve a house ball. I've watched most of your videos on how to curve or hook the ball. It just isn't happening for me. Thank you

[@adriannetribble4037]

If you throw the bowl like that will it hurt your thumb when you release the bowl to curve it or no

[@hex191]

great vid as a always . but I'm jealous. that your in a bowling alley. I'm from the UK and all bowling places are closed 😢😢

[@robert-zr6vo]

Lately I’ve been trying this technique but sometimes my thumb gets stuck and that’s a lousy feeling any suggestions on that

[@JrPacheco-i2n]

Nice video control the hand control the game

[@charroruss]

Thanks J.R. for this tip. Playing the inside has always been a struggle for me. One quick question. If I keep my hand tilted throughout the swing and release, can I achieve the ball motion that you achieved in your last shot? Lastly, I created a duplicate of the Styrofoam bowling ball you made and it works great while we all are on lock-down. I enjoy your videos!

[@kvdgadj]

Where are you aiming the ball at, it look like it going between 15 and 10 arrow.

[@fakri03]

whats the difference between "release at 10 or 9 clock" and "suitcase release" (which is consider as weaker) in your previous video.. still cant get it.

[@kevinscarborough9982]

The difference is the amount of revs.

[@fakri03]

i know about the rev.. but many coach said dont get around the ball instead through the ball.. thats what i dont understand, bcos if u want to do a side release have to get around the ball right?

[@berserkdragon76]

Welp!!! Some people will say that is spinning the ball cuz that's what I've been doing after quitting 23 years ago due to injury. As long as you don't chicken wing, it's not spinning lol
