Glad to see this. More consistency, better area to adjust to lane conditions, and easier to hit a target than to hit an area. Good luck, stick with this.Originally Posted by GoodGravy
Out for practice yesterday. Took a day off work and it was pretty nice bowing in a completely empty center...was able to really work on some nagging form issues without any distractions.
Anyhow, using a lot of what has been discussed here, I am coming to the realization that with my current wrist/hand nerve issues my 'ol monster hook may be a thing of the past. I started moving right when I just could not get the ball to come back to the pocket and my game came together fairly well.
Don't know why I continue to be so shocked when I buckle down and get back to basics and the strikes start stacking up. No substitute for good knee bend, head up, smooth release and hand out of the ball clean.

One more thing to add to all this....can't believe I didn't mention it before...
About 20 years ago (man...just seems like yesterday!) I was doing a Sports Medicine rotation in college--pre med course work--- and spent a few semesters working with the college baseball team. I learned a number of tape techniques for athletic taping. I have seen some other discussions on this page about wrist support for week/damaged wrists. I can tell you that a good tape job will work better than most pre-packaged wrist wraps out there.
It is a bit to involved to go into any significant discussion about the 'how to' wrap a wrist right. There is a lot of practice you have to do to get the tape to lay right and not bunch up while creating the right support. You might be able to find something on you-tube or Google that would get you started. My best advice, get some good tape!
So should we be calling you "DR GRAVY ????
