Wow, that's awesome
I want to find out my revs
need to put tape on my ball
That's awesome. I love anything filmed in high speed, but that release is so cool.
Is that Tommy Jones?
As far as I know that's not him.Originally Posted by MisterSinister

Interesting, it looks like him, with the bald head and similar build. TJ's rev rate is around 550, and the delivery, including finishing position looks the same. However I think you may be correct, it's not TJ. When you watch the slo mo, this bowler gets under the ball a lot. Tommy Jones does not really get under the ball. It's amazing TJ gets that many revs without getting under it. Here's TJ in slo mo for comparison:
Hmmmm..... that looks almost like my release now days so
maybe I'm starting to get some of my RPM's back on the ball
like I used to back in the day. I used to get something like 600+
RPM's on it before my back injury sidelined me for 12+ years
from bowling.
I'll have to get somebody to video me so I can check and see
how many RPM's I'm getting now days but I'd be willing to bet
a wooden nickle that it is not that many RPM's any more. LOL!!

I really love the slow motion footage on the release point. I would love to get my rev rate tested. The coach I am currently working with, Hank Boomershine, told me he thinks my rev rate is about 430. But that is just him eyeballing it and not testing it through video or on CATS. So it may be higher or lower, I have no idea.
Just take a video of yourself bowling with a piece of tap on the ball, if you know the frame rate you can calculate your revs easy enough
