    Default The Game Changer by Mark Baker

    Almost done reading this book and it is really interesting reading! Learned quite a bit on footwork,form and timing. I highly recommend reading this book as I think it could help some of you understand what we talk about on these boards. He does not talk about release,so I thought i'd tell you!

    I put some of his concepts to the test in practice and in leaguse last night and for the 1st time this year I actually had back-back 200 games(224 & 214)before lanes dried up and had miserable 3rd. I'm very happy with I learned from this book so far.

    I heard that book calling out to me from my pro shop operators shelf. I had to tell it I already have a lot of material to digest, including bowling this month soon.

    I go to the pro shop tomorrow (FINALLY) to have the Matrix ball drilled. I have a feeling that if I see this book there, it'll end up going home with me along with the newly drilled ball. Thanks for the tip!

    Would you say it geared toward all levels or just intermediate and lower?

    Everyone! It has a chapter about Tommy Jones and Chris Barnes and the issues they faced.

    I've read this book 3 times, and I've referred back to it on multiple occasions when I noticed something weird with my swing to diagnose the root cause of the issue.

    I HIGHLY recommend it.
