Yes hold the ball up at a 90 deg. Angle like a half bicep curl. If youcant do that for 15 seconds then you need to work on strengthening by squeezing something
When I make my back swing my ball arm is only parallel to the floor. I have a cupped position in my hand and when I reach the release area I uncup. I have a light grip and don't muscle the ball. I also stay behind the ball as long as possible. I get good revs for a swing that isn't high and decent ball speed.
Arsenal: Raw Hammer Orange/Black Hybrid 14lbs, Blue Hammer urethane 14lbs, Columbia 300 Lava Ball Plastic 14lbs, Highest scratch series 710 Bowling 38 years Never hit that 300 game. Highest game 276, had 11 strikes and one spare in the middle of that game.
I know my ball fits right but I think I always give it a quick squeeze at the top of my swing then relax. Is this messing me up? I guess I dont trust the grip 100%
As long as you're relaxed at the release it shouldn't matter if you grab it anywhere else. What hurts is trying to go from gripping to relaxed in a nano-second when letting go of the ball.
