Put a PARACHUTE ON THAT BALL!!!

I think all you ceiling launchers out there get my point.... I can only recommend some downers, (prescribed by a doctor) ( I have only really see a couple in my short time bowling!
I believe most bowlers respect the alleys, as it should be.

If it was used in a POW camp,,, vs water boarding,,,, I would spill the beans!!!!! Anything, but the sound of a bowling ball crashing into the surface!!!

Hahaahah!

lol i have done that befor throwing a ball half way down a lane but for my spare shots with a ball thats ball crapped up but no more i need to stay focused and do the stuff for real now so no more lofting=(

I'm willing to bet his release stems from throwing a poorly fitted ball. maybe the whole league could kick in enough money to buy him a new ball if he promises to have it properly fitted. Maybe the Pro Shop guy could get him to lower his loft while testing out the new ball.

he thinks he's better than he is? what's his average?

friend of mine used to throw a nice loft. he had a dam quick approach up to the lane, and he threw it probably like 5 feet past the arrows a lot of the time. not super high like the guy your talking about though, it was only about waist high. then he had a hip replacement, so his approach speed and release have changed quite a bit because of it lol

he actually is a pretty good bowler though. a 190-200 average usually

If I thought that was the problem I would GIVE him what ever it took to STOP THROWING his ball to the edge of space and back!! He never complains about,,, his thumb sticking,,,, I get the impression he thinks his delievery is normal..... This guy is about 55.... the gal he is teaching bowls the same way!! He must be a good teacher!! Bombs away!!!!

i had one of those, it was a she and she would aim for the arrows everytime, its annoying but we used to joke around about it with her

[GeorgiaStroker]

Well the only other idea I can come up with is get all the other league bowlers to stop when he gets up and as he releases the ball everybody whistles and yells BOOM!! Maybe he'll take a hint. lol

Why not just walk up to him when he is alone and ask WHY! Good Lord why are you THROWING YOUR BALL! ROLL THE BALL, ROLL...ROLL..PLEASE ROLL THE DAMN BALL!!!!!!!!!!

Roll, roll, roll your ball gently down the alley, merely, merely, merely, merely, bowling can be such fun!!
