Ball99999. in all seriousness, please post a video of you bowling so we can see what you're doing and what you might need help with. A picture is worth 1000 words, so several minutes worth at 30 per second is worth millions. I've also finally gotten around to purchasing Mark Baker's Game Changer book and just in the first couple of chapters I've already learned a ton from it - well worth the ten bucks to by the ebook edition. I think you should give it a try - I'm betting you'll find the problem isn't with the ball at all. I've already learned just from what I've read so far that the reason I struggle to maintain a consistent easy swing and good release isn't my ball at all, it's my FEET and my resulting balance at the foul line. That's why last night when I started releasing the ball while standing up straighter I noticed an immediate improvement. It all makes sense, and I'm REALLY glad I spent the 10 bucks on this book.

If you're at all serious about improving your game (and it sounds like you are) then you should start by uploading a video for us to see and you should study your fundamentals - your footwork, your stance, your swing and follow thru and your balance at the foul line. Don't worry about the ball yet or the span or pitch of the thumbhole or any of that. That comes later. Start at the beginning. It's what I see now that I need to do, and I've been bowling off and on for 30 years.

threads are free, not valuable resources. and no one has to click them if they don't interest them.

I just am making one request, repeatedly, that people stop telling me to see a coach, or to post a video.

The space they take up is valuable. This forum, as much as you think it is, it's not all about you and your issues. If your posting 10 threads with similar questions, then you're burying threads that other people might find usefull. If a thread isn't on page one, it gets forgotten about, especially when the mobile site only allows you to see page one. Plus, we all know that no one searches for info, they just post a new thread. So we get you posting the same questions over and over, then we get people starting new threads about things they could have found if you weren't clogging up the forum. So we get the same stuff constantly recycled. It almost seems like you keep asking these questions hoping someone has a "magic potion." You will get that one peice of advice, that is easy to do, and make you a pro. Either that, or you are a troll, and you love the attention, either posative or negative. I know you don'r care about what I have to say, but I am telling you straight up why most people are frustrated with you. I'm not trying to insult you, or call you out, just giving you the facts.
