I like the rhythm of your approach. I would like to see you bring your pendulum swing closer to your body so that you are not throwing the ball across your body.

sorry don't really understand this too.. any videos to show?

[eugene02]

To really see your approach and release, i suggest next time to focus on you and not the ball going down the lane. The ball seems to be doing exactly what you want it to do. Looks like just need to work on your release. Also I couldn't tell but were you following through with your arm after you released the ball?

this was just to see how my ball rolls on the lanes.. didn't really want to focus on me that much.. maybe next time i'll film a sideways video showing me when throwing the ball..

[eugene02]

seems like the video focused too much on the ball and it's more like a ball reaction video.. lol..

wanted to see how much my ball react when on the lane as when i'm playing, can't see this effect.. was amazed by the video totally..

For sure. Go to youtube and watch vids of the pros. You will notice that when they release the ball, their shoulders are more or less squared with the foul line, if not their target. They do not turn as sideways at the line as you do. Pete Weber (love him or hate him) has one of the best physical games EVER and you will see that his arm swing comes straight up after release. Your follow through actually crosses your body somewhere around your waist/belt line. You do this because you are trying to follow through down the lane (as you should) but since you have turned sideways your body is pointing one way while your arm is trying to follow through in the right direction.

This can be remedied by keeping your shoulders squared with your foul-line or target all during your delivery, including your follow-through.

Okay! Thanks.. Now i understand better!

i don't really get what it means by my hand isn't below the equator of the ball at release...

Eugene, here is a video where I'm attempting to explain the equator comment followed by some shots of where my hand sometimes comes out at. Hope it helps clear things up.

[eugene02]

Thanks bill.. I get the rough idea.. will try to do this on the next bowling session.. Is that you talking by the way?

[billf]

Yes it is me talking but I haven't had a chance to listen to it yet.
