need help with backswing

[aussiedave]

guys heres a link to the recent video i took about 3 weeks ago my arms are as low as i can go my right shoulder even hangs down abit because that's the only way i can stop my self from moving left to much, i hold the ball at my waste and always have but now my backswing is going way above my head with my 14lb and 15lb balls.

From what I can see in the video, your action seems fine for what you are doing. One way to keep the backswing lower is to keep your shoulders more square on to the pins throughout your delivery. You will sacrifice some speed doing this but that is part of getting your timing under control.
What makes you say your timing is out - seemed okay to me.

thanks but thing is my backswing is higher but if i square up more with the pins my arm will go to the right i will see if i can find the video of my old bowling on here and you will see what i mean.

but as i timing my feet go fast sometimes but when i stay the same with the feet my arm will go higher witch means i have to slow my feet down more.

So its sounds like u are opening up more with your shoulder to compensate for your arm moving right when squared up. when u open up to correct an arm problem, your backswing is free to move higher. the more u open the higher it goes.

Try sending video of you squared up like u said. perhaps the problem is not your backswing at all.

See your shoulders? completely open as far as they gonna go. This is definitely not more squared up. Is this the video u meant to post?
