    I said practice not bowl without fingers. If you push away the ball with your fingers out your hand will catch the ball and gravity will work for you instead of against you. This teaches where your hand needs to be in the push away so your wrist doesn't break in the backswing. This is straight from Norm Duke

    And why no push away? You just want the arm to fall at the elbow and that's it?

    Hinge it.... http://bowlingknowledge.info/images/...inskifeb09.pdf

    Using your no finger as a drill makes more sense than how I first understood the post.

    If you still have wrist pain after not bowling for 2 months,you may be suffering from repedative motion syndrom or you may possably have a cyst(broken blood vessel that swells causing pain in the joint area). I had a cyst that swelled in between the joint and eventually needed to have the cyst removed as I could'nt bend my wrist. Doctor said I made it worst by bowling. I now wear a scorpian adjustable brace.

    I would suggest a wrist specialist and have it properly diagnosed to make sure you didn't cause any damage that may require surgery.
