James the bowler,

couple things, there's this thing called the edit button, you can add more to the original post you made instead of spamming the thread with 4 one line posts.

Also, if you "trying to win" try not to make it so obvious

seems like his posts are in order and responding to other people.

wouldn't make much sense for him to update a post he made with a response to something someone else posted after that.

this is a strong ball, so the backup hook would be a fair bit stronger (assuming the ball is drilled for a backup)

Nope. She FLIPS it.

Do you mean she throws it where the ball almost like it is spinning back towards the the approach?

I've seen some people that do that. Most of the people I have seen do that, usually ~40-45 feet the ball will start to grab and roll forward and that's when they get what 'hook' they have. generally not alot.

It's an unusual style but like anything else if you are consistent it can be worked to score throwing that way.

Go to http://www.bowlingball.com/products/...html?lf=search . They have the specs for the diva, description of the ball, reviews from people who have thrown in, videos, and drill options. I always consult bowlingball.com when I have a question about a ball, whether it be one that I want, or one that I have seen thrown and want to learn more about. Overall it is a very great website with everything you would need for bowling.

I had posted the one post on my phone, but obviously it had not quoted what I was speaking of. I was simply replying to what somebody else had said, remarking on my bowling ability the past few months. A new ball would be good (I'm trying to win it for a friend) but it is also good to find a forum that allows for me to talk to other bowlers. I apologize if it seems like I am being rude, I do not mean for it.
