I did try the half thumb release and it worked suprisingly well! im going to work on it on regular lane conditions and see how i do. The lanes were dryer then the sahara last time i practised . Keep up the good work bowling

Unfortunately, No, the alley doesn't show MPH. I use a stop watch to time how long it takes from the ball to leave my hand to hit the pins and use a bowling MPH chart that tells you how fast it is..

Also, good luck on the release and trying to figure it out. I certainly would never teach someone to bowl the way I do because it isn't considered the "correct" way, but it's just what I've been doing my whole life and what I'm comfortable with. So if you can get it working too, awesome. Hope you shoot well.

Once again, see the first rule of bowling technique; 1. there are no set in stone rules, only general guidelines. Give something a try, if it works use it, if it doesn't discard it.
