    They have a contentious history for some reason. One says one thing the other says something else. They seemingly will never agree on anything from what I have read.

    zdawg said when he tried to add revs to his backup ball it hurt his fingers.

    Somehow that became turning the ball early on his normal shot.
    Actually to clarify, when I threw the backup ball I experienced a sensation that I don't normally get with my regular release, that is the thumb coming out of the ball cleanly/effortlessly before my other fingers, and me being able to consciously "feel" it - it wasn't something I was expecting.

    It "felt" the way that the slow motion release looks on the 10 pin analysis video where you can see the fingers still in the ball adding rotation after the thumb has clearly exited if that makes any sense. So now I'm trying to figure out how to get that type of reaction from my normal release.

    Oh, and the reason my middle finger got sore is I'm assuming its not used to that movement if that makes any sense. Of course I'm going on assumptions at this point, as this was the first time I ever tried throwing a backup ball, also the amount of rotation of my fingers was minimal compared to my normal release - I'm guessing this has to do with my bad habit on my regular release of coming up the side rather than staying behind the ball. On the backup ball my hand has no choice but to stay behind the ball since my wrist obviously won't allow it to go up the side of the ball in that direction.

    O.K., this is the last response that I will ever make to anything that Mike White posts. Mike, you obviously have some serious issues. I have never attacked you. If anything, I have really shown a lot of self-control to avoid doing so. If I say anything, you will tell the world that I am wrong. So be it! Mike, you are right about everything! You can quote me, because I am not going to play your stupid games. I see that others have realized that your mode is to attack. Despite that, I will try to help people. If you tell them I'm wrong, AGAIN, then they'll just have to decide for themselves. For me, I'm done. Get some help!

    Yeah I could have just mentioned the pitch, but every time Rob posts his factually incorrect dogma, it reminds me of this guy.

    If you just listen to what he says, it's not bad. But his demonstration of it is a joke.



    Ok ya messed up, just don't post the messed up part on Youtube.

    I tried to just ask questions about his ramblings, back in http://www.bowlingboards.com/threads...ll=1#post98882

    He was sure he was correct. And even added more ramblings.

    When presented with a discussion based on physics he became silent.

    Some of the info he has presented here is of value, but he just doesn't know the difference between his good stuff, and his crap.

    I only correct his crap.
