My hooks are non existent

[FatalException]

Lately ive been trying to learn how to hook the ball the way the professionals do it. I know that your thumb is supposed to leave the hole first, and then your fingers, but it seems ALL of my fingers leave the ball at the same time and I get minimal rotation, hardly anything actually. I'm pretty tall, about 6'4 with long arms, my ball is 16 pounds and im pretty able to use the cupped wrist when I throw. I'm not sure what im doing wrong.

The quick answer is to try and imagine throwing a foot ball under handed with a spiral, Then just do that to the bowling ball.
It's much easier if you have finger tips in your ball.. Good Luck FE...

Fatal, what kind of ball do you throw? how long you been bowling? how fast are you throwing?, the reason I ask is 'cause I'm 6'31/2" and if I cut loose with to much power that ball will go strait as an arrow. At our size it takes a little restraint to make things work.
