Yeah sadly that's how most bowling ball videos are. I wish they would tape a whole game or a couple of games. It's just advertising at this point.

They look fun but I wouldn't see the oil for these balls.

The dude has one.

this is not a ball that you would be able to make good use of on your average ths, its just to powerful.

i dont do the full lane hook i stand at about 16-24 and aim for about the 2nd arrow to the third on the right and just let the ball do the work i throw around 20-21 mph and could you please explain a little more by what u mean by the avg thing

Can you adjust your axis rotation? What is your usual axis rotation? Giving the 24-15 line you stated above, if you can adjust your axis rotation accordingly then you might be able to use it on a house shot given your speed.

i have no idea what it is how do i figure that out? is it something i can do? at home or do i need to go bowl i never new about a lot of this stuff should i ask my coach next time i go see him?

with what ball are you throwing that line? i can't imagine it being nearly as strong as the nightmare.

as for what i mean by average THS, simply most THS's have relatively little oil in comparison to the sport patterns that a ball like this would be better on (there are sports shot's that it wouldn't work on either)

Asking your coach what your axis rotation is would be the easiest. It basically is the angle the ball rotates at compared to the line it goes on down the lane i.e. ball goes straight while it spin left to right at a 90 degree angle would be 90 degrees of axis rotation. I believe this ball would be too strong for a 90 degree rotation but would work with a 30 degree rotation. Matching your speed and rotation to make a ball work can be done but unless you bowl in different centers or plan to do tournaments it's easier to match the ball to the player than alter the player to the ball. Am I making any sense?
