    Maybe I have been lucky and slid the ball out a little more when I needed to. All I know for sure is , I just don't look at the ball and pins . I plan a shot , read it and hopefully adjust for success.

    The big question running through my mind now. Is who addresses to their target arrow? As compared to conventional square to the foul line.

    Are their any links on how to think from approach to release that are commonly accepted by all?
    I address to my target and push my swing away towards my target. I also use a version of three point targeting where I look at my break point, target arrow, and lay down point. I switch back to my target arrow right as I start my swing. I feel like it helps me put ,y target along the intended path better.

    I play Golf that way!
    Learn the lines, but keep it fun. Bowling is mostly a mental sport, so aim.

    ALL my athletes are taught/trained or retrained to square up to their breakpoint. It's almost impossible for most people to swing the ball 20+ boards while being square to the foul line. Square to the foul line ended when resin balls became available.
