Anyone do the one step drill?

Yep San Jose State. I think he's also the bowling coach there now, but I'm not going to wager money on my memory of that fact.

I think ya right that he is in town like Mike Haugen Jr is for ASU

its pointless in my mind. it doesnt show you anything, it just gets you out of your normal tempo and groove.. my friend shot 258 in a game that he was bowling against me doing it though lol

I couldn't disagree more! breaking parts of your game down to the fundamentals is a great way to work through a problem. I recommended this drill to a friend who was having problems with his timing. After a game of the 1-step drill, his timing was almost flawless. He went from a 498 that week to a 696 the following week on the same lane conditions...just my experience, but it does work for some.

I also think its a great idea to work with different approaches and lines. I've bowled in conditions where I need to slow down more than I can with a 5-step approach, so I'll drop to a 4 step. If I need to slow down more I'll go to a 3-step. Having thought out all scenarios and practicing them is the only way to be prepared for what you may come up against.

I do this whenever i get a new ball drilled up. First six shots. Just to get a feel and get my release down. No matter what no two balls are every identical even drilled by same person at same time.

I tried out this drill a few weeks ago before the start of my summer league, and it's done wonders getting my swing and release back on track.
