Almost forgot Donnie too. Probably more importantly the new material you were discussing 1 vs 2 hands, timing etc. sounds great. As you know I will help you in any way I can to help promote your brand. As I mentioned before, I believe in you, your dad and what you are doing to help grow the sport of bowling. Particularly youth since that is the true future of the sport. Peace ✌️

The gang should be there!

I'm enjoying your past vids. Stumbled on you through ball vids. Keep it up. Would you recommend a short pin for the Purple hammer solid?

[@BowlingScience]

That ball is already super low diff so you will see less of a hook difference on that ball as a short pin. But low diff symms do retain a lot of int diff ratio, meaning it will work well and make an even less hooking version of it.

[@dfresh933]

So a higher diff ball in sym/asym if you want more noticeable motion?

Hi Mikey, I drilled my ball Short Pin. I am having a hard time adjusting as the lanes transition during my 8 games tournaments. Can you please provide me your insights or advice? Thanks

[@BowlingScience]

Transition can be different in every situation, but I find short pin balls to be more versatile when you use more surface. Which pin distance did you go with?

[@Onesongperweek]

@@BowlingScience 2.25 short pin. Yes, 1000 grit works the best for me. In a 42” sports pattern, I bowled 279 & 265, ave: 210 of 8 games. My low scores are at the later parts of the games when the lanes transition, mostly it was giving me splits from light hit.

[@BowlingScience]

Sounds like carrydown taking hold at the end. On longer patterns after a bunch of games, short pins can struggle, unless you have a stronger cover short pin to move to. Often in that situation a switch over to a strong drilling on a low diff symm can be a good move. Like a 4” counter attack or purple reactive hammer. That gives you the same low diff but better continuation.

@@BowlingScience Thanks Mikey. I'll definitely try that. I've seen recently that you have switched to 1- handed delivery. Do you mind sharing me your decision to switching back to 1 hand? Me... I'll continue to perfect my game with 2 hands.

[@Onesongperweek]

@@BowlingScience hey Mikey, can I have your email address. I am working on a visual guide for 2-handed bowlers. I need your expertise to and advice. Thanks
