ICEMAN"S NEW DEAD AIM, and IS TI!!!!!!

My baby shoes are bigger then that. Do you have to have your shoes specially made cause they are so small. Do you get a discount since they use much less material. I have real man feet size 16.
I figured a superhero would have real feet to stand on to help him accomplish are the superhero stuff like throwing a bowling ball at a nuclear missile to save the bowling alley from annihilation

I wouldn't be able to bowl in anything that doesn't slide, especially after the work I've put in lately increasing the power of my pivot step (which has increased the length of my slide). When I first started out last September, I planted for about two weeks until I realized I would be having knee surgery sooner rather than later if I didn't learn how to slide (numerous football and wrestling injuries when I was younger).

I still see this one guy in my league who is rather heavyset, he charges to the foul line, plants his foot and does some kind of half body jerking motion on release, and while he's a decent average bowler (180s I think), I can't help but wonder how much damage he's doing to his knee.

I understand you point of view, but I use a very slow, focused approach, timing my release with the speed, ( or should I say lack of speed) with my arm movement) NO strain on my knees at all)

I too played Jr, High, High School, and College football at William Jewell College her in Liberty mo. Have had water on the knee, and a few injuries thought out my years of playing ball.

I am convinced that a lot of injuries people have TODAY are core related to the crap we now call food! Plain and simple inflammation and arthritis are related!

GMO's are every where, do a little reading about what's going on with our food supply. I do organic, and you will never see me in a Fast Food establishment ANY MORE! My health has gone OFF the charts after watching what I eat, and I feel pretty damn good considering what I was told 7 years ago by number of RA specialist!

I had pain in my knees when I fist stared bowing on leagues almost 4 years ago. But now, NONE, ZERO!!
It was a slow but sure progress,,,,

My situation is honestly getting better, and better, every year. I am not at 100 percent, yet, (with my feet), but they are getting better too! Its all about lifestyle changes, and exercise!!!!!

I agree, IF MY approach was a QUICK ONE, maybe then I would feel pain! I notice their are many different successful styles that work! I study the bowlers that have Great Averages,,,, some have fast movement approach's, and some very slow. Both seem to work!

P.S. SUGER does and will cause inflammation!! Stay away for the stuff as much as possible, USE STEVIA ONLY!

The Tri-Grip fitting is not even remotely like a Sarge Easter Grip!

The Sarge Easter grip uses a finger tip grip for the middle finger and a conventional grip for the ring finger.

see info here: http://www.brunsnick.com/sarge_easter_grip.html

Bill Hall's Tri-Grip fitting system is a fitting technique where they are trying to base the fit more on the anatomy of the hand so it sets in the hand better and comes off better. Like they try to do with the CLT (Center line Transfer) etc.

(CLT instructions here: http://wiki.bowlingchat.net/wiki/ima...STRUCTIONS.pdf



It would be closer to Carl Hoffmire's Max Y Grip system is trying to do, See link here: http://www.gripcheck.net/Max-y-grip_...Info_sheet.pdf



A caveat with the max-y: there are those that think that it over stretches the spans, it also uses a lot of reverse pitch and it increases grip pressure.

If your pro shop guy is referring to the Sarge Easter grip, the Tri-Grip is nothing like that.

Sarge Easter has a short (conventional) span for the ring finger compared to standard fingertip,
while the Tri-Grip retains the span of the standard fingertip, but modifies the pitch angles.

Thanks for the info. I guess this is something new and possibly revolutionary. Will have to try it. Iceman send me your Deadly Aim so I can get it plugged and re-drilled tri-grip. lol.

Yeah some of my older friends tell me it only gets worse with age, we shall see I guess but I'm pretty good at the working out thing when I'm not getting sidetracked (I worked in the health and nutrition industry from high school through my first few years after college).

I think you hit the nail on the head, for me my body was telling me that it wasn't happy with that approach. In your case, it sounds like you worked out a style that is best for you, in the end I think that's the most important thing.

something you and Jesus have in common,,, ( both of you can walk on water) Wow... 16,,,, mine are 12/13s depending on the style of shoe!

If you move them back and fourth at a high SPEED,,, can you lift yourself off the ground???? lOL

One thing not to be confused with when I say slow approach, ( I meant just that, walking up to the line), but when I deliver the ball, ALL HELL BREAKS LOSE NOW!! LOL.... Nothing about my ball speed is slow! It has went UP each year, since my general health issues have been resolved!

It sounds LIKE A FRICKEN ICE STORM on a METAL ROOF, when my ball hits the pocket...... iceman likes...

The guy that sold me the Byte last week, didn't like the ball because it was to strong for him,,, ( Great guy,, GOOD BOWLER, just not much speed, or revs, and that ball didn't work for him)

I have pretty damn good speed, and a bunch more rev's then I had last year, or even the year before.

ICEMAN is getting BETTER WITH AGE!! Since you worked in health and nutrition, you must know about the CRAP called FOOD that's being put out NOW DAYS!

As I type, my wife is on her way to pick up 8 dozen local organic feed eggs, from a local farmer! We purchased a whole Organic grass fed cow a few months back, along with a local grown Hog!

We drink Organic milk, and get several products Organic for the Costco Store! Costco is on the same page, as my wonderful wife and me!!

ICEMAN wishing all of you GOOD HEALTH,,

and it all starts with 3 things,,, Good Real Food, Pure Water, GOOD Natural Supplements, not synthetic, and exercise!! There you have it,,, NO WAY does health have to decline if you follow the above guidelines.... I think a GREAT ROLE MODEL was Jack LaLane.... ( not sure about that spelling)!

This sounds alot like me real slow approach and super sonic ball speed.
This kind of creates a problem for me with my timing mixed with a serious amount of muscling the ball.
I saw this a few weeks ago when I did that video analysis.

Yes I can fly with my big feet but the problem is I end up upside down and all the blood rushes from my feet to my head then my feet lose feeling like when people say their leg fell asleep.

You have to throw one of these puppies! It is new technology, that does what it says! Deadly aim has a new flex-resin poured Dead-center core system that positions a super dense mass near the center of the ball, creating better energy flow throughout the ball.

Then it reinforced the outer core with one of the most durable products in the world, carbon-fiber, to create extreme energy recoil upon impact at the pins.




So far Larry, and myself, real people think this just might be one of the BEST new technologies out a long time. Larry's long time is much longer then mine, I have only been bowling sanctioned league for 3 1/2 years.

Its CRAZY how it sounds upon first contact, and how MUCH MORE pin action I get, along with Larry. I had only 3 ten pins the other day, and picked 2 out of three up using the Dead Aim! (palm up delivery).

I have been ask about its durability! Larry, one of my bowling partners, has been using his for several weeks now bowing seveal leages a week., and its still his go to ball on house oil!

He is always bragging about how it has increased his average a bunch!!

I don't work for Hammer,,, its my first ball of that brand, but I must say, being a tech-know-nerd,,,, I am one happy bowler using this product,,, would like to have a couple more to drill at different positions,,,, but money don't grow in bowling establishments!!

Hey,,, HAMMER ARE YOU OUT THERE????? LOL..... Ice

[MICHAEL]

AS IT ROLLS DOWN THE LANE IT LOOKS LIKE A BALL OF FIRE ROLLING TOWARD THE POCKET!
Its beautiful!!

The great mix of color gives the illusion, (with a little imagination), of a RED HOT FIRE BALL spinning its way to BURN WOOD!!
