I assume the tape on the ball is a measurement for RPM? I've got the motioncoach software and it's hard to get the RPM from the video, but with tape, I can see it being easier. I'll give this a shot.
While I was watching this video, I found a Expert Village video of Follow through correctly and incorrectly. He shows the differences of following through and Short Arm/Chicken Winging (which I do both at times). This is starting to show me how easy this game should be - but the obstacle I am faced with is the muscle memory of my long term approach and release. This will take time to rid the old way and do it correctly - it will be good in the long run but I can tell a lot of the team members I bowl with now are starting to get frustrated with me a little - my 210 average is dropping like 2 - 3 pins a evening. I do have 1 team on my executive league that is fully supportive. They understand what I'm trying to do and commend me on working on it so consistently. We are not winning all the games we should be (mostly by a 10 - 20 pins) and usually shows in my score, but we all miss a few spares each evening that could be the difference and they see it.
I know I can't do my old way on certain nights, and my new technique other nights, I'd never get the muscle memory going. Any suggestions here besides bowling everyday?
