This might be a good approach. I've tried it, and the ball doesn't over-hook. The main reasons I haven't really pursued this are: (1) in order to hit my slide far enough to the right on the approach, I have to walk parallel to the gutters but face to the left and throw the ball out to the left: this is a little challenging for me since I've always been "old school" and walked towards my target; and (2) I've always felt that, as a lefty, I shouldn't have to play the middle of the lane, and should be trying to stay outside if possible. But maybe it's time for fresh thinking.
