Non-Bowling Thumb Position
With the thumb up on your non-bowling arms hand, your shoulders want to close throughout the bowling approach and this creates pulled shots and other inconsistencies. With the thumb facing down on your non-bowling arm’s hand, your shoulders stay open longer, allowing the bowling swing to naturally flow throughout the bowling approach.
When your shoulders are stable throughout the bowling approach your accuracy and balance increase, which leads to more consistent shots:
One-Step Drill
The one-step drill is designed to slow down the slide and finish position on the approach. Isolating these areas with this drill will help develop the non-bowling hand’s thumb to stay down naturally and give you an idea of what open stable shoulders should feel like.
– Start by putting the left foot behind the right.
– Then drop the bowling ball down by your side.
– Put the balance arm out in front of you with the thumb pointed down toward the approach.
– Pick out a target on the lane, bump the ball forward and slide into your finish position releasing the bowling ball toward your target with your non-bowling arm’s thumb facing down throughout the drill’s entity.
