    If this video featured anyone other than Marshall Hollman, I'd say stay away for the simple reason that it is obviously very old. Because it is Marshall, much of the information is still relevant as he had, in my opinion, the first truly modern release. My only hesitation in recommending this video 100% comes from the fact that pre-modern bowling balls reacted so differently, as attested by the fact that Marshall himself told me that he only won one tournament using reactive resin. Modern balls effectively ended his career.

    Might be a old video, but Marshall's form looked great especially that long, balanced slide. Most everything looked like it would work okay today, maybe with just a few tweaks and the right ball.

    Today might be a power game, but a little Hollman finesse could take you a long way on a THS league.

    low backswing and long slide and not forcing the ball at all. Wow all the things I do wrong. He is from my years of bowling, 70's
