Backup ball release

Yeah, afraid I'm going to tweak something

Being able to flatten out your hook and throw a relatively straight ball was the old way most of the one ball players used to shoot at 10 pins and it works pretty well, twisting your elbow and hand in such a way to throw a true backup ball isn't worth trying if you're a male as it's an unnatural motion and could cause injury. Just that fact, not to mention the other reasons are enough to stop me from trying it.
