    Well I just got home from a practice session and I had some help from one of the leaguer's assistance, and I got a few pointers and a major MAJOR problem I was having is I wasn't getting the ball in the right area before hooking. I am hooking very much but with a little help I managed to squeeze out a few more strikes at a much more "recurring" rate. I average 130ish according to all the games I've bowled and kept track of, and I managed to turn loose a 176 before I stopped. Thanks again guys! Im gonna keep practicing it up and hopefully after I pick up a psycho raw-hammer (my next ball in my arsenal or the onyx vibe) I will be done with ball shopping!

    Speed has been everything to me. I was "coaching" my son and clucking away at him for going too fast, meanwhile lamenting the fact that I couldn't seem to get any grip on the lanes...when the house owner's son took me aside and gently suggested I follow my own advice!

    Bottom line...it worked for me. I speed up, the ball hooks less, if at all. I slow down, it cuts, sometimes violently. Amazing stuff, and it's made all the difference. The rest is all up to how good a read I get on the lane.
