    Thanks everyone for the advice. I have one more question, if I were to try to speed my ball up would it help correct the problem? I feel like I bowl in slow motion, but i've been told i needed to because if i bowl any faster it's hard for my ball to react. In these videos my ball is rolling at about 12-14mph. Before I was bowling at 16-17 and I'm not sure if my problems were as bad.

    As far as the fit goes, The misson x (green ball) does feel a lot looser than my warning sign. I've bought some tape and hopefully that will help out.

    I'll surely try to get under the ball, and post a newer video later. I didn't realize that was my problem until you guys pointed it out.

    Thanks for all the help everyone.

    Hi there,

    I started bowling the same as you do,
    My coach advice me to Bend a little
    to the final approach just before the release
    of the ball. the sliding foot with a little bended knee.

    just to lower a little your body before the release,
    and your release of the ball will be smooth.

    Hope this helps

    It's usually easier to start off slow to learn how to throw first, then adjust speed later. You will sacrifice score, but you'll work on the long-term goal of becoming a better bowler. You can also work on keeping your thumb straight because it is probably bent with your hand being on top of the ball. You'll probably need to redo the thumb slug to start with a smaller hole.
