Proper release is not a synonym for lots of hook. There are very accurate bowlers that maybe hook the ball 3-10 boards max. That being said, a stronger wrist/forearm will allow you to stay/get under the ball further so that you can get more revolutions on the ball - helping you load the wrist to make a bigger unloading of the wrist. This will in turn allow your 3-4 boards of hook to turn into 7-8 boards of hook, provided other factors aren't in the way - more oil, spotty backends, ball burning up in the heads, etc.....
