Just came across this video. Great information. I have always identified my start point with my feet using the outside of my right foot as a right handed bowler. Turns out that by sheer coincidence this works perfectly for the rule of 7 because if I start on 10 my left foot is sliding about 17. Sometimes our quirks work out! Thanks!

Thanks soooooo much for doing this video. It will be a game changer for me. I've always drifted right when shooting at 2nd arrow from right and pull it left normally missing my mark. I found last weekend if I want to hit the 2nd arrow from right, I walk down looking at 3rd arrow from right which actually helped me to walk much more straight for once and then at last moment I try to roll over the 2nd arrow. Seemed to help. But this explanation might help me pin point the idea even more. Thank you.

Great information JR. Seeing what board the ball is rolling on at the break point is difficult for me without a camera to record that board. With a ball speed of 15 mph, the ball is traveling at 22ft/sec and that means when I look up to see the board from my 15' target, the ball is actually hitting the pins. On the other hand, if look at the intended target down lane, I can see that board more accurately as the ball approaches. This knowledge of angles is great. In all my years of bowling, I have never heard anyone address the target set up system as you have. Just an FYI..... lane is 60 feet from foul line to head pin, ball speed is 15 mph, ball time to travel the 60 feet is 2.7 seconds.

@charlieodom9107 5 жыл бұрын
You make a killer point about trying to go up the boards. My dad watches me practice up the boards all the time and doesn't understand how I'm able to stand in the left gutter and still get my ball to go up the 5 board. My rule of 7 is a rule of 5, but I line up with my slide foot, so it looks like I'm standing in the gutter. Another point to mention is thinking of a railroad track. If you look down a track, the rails appear to come together in the distance, and due to that, distance perceived is shorter. When people try to hit a mark 40' down a lane, they think the mark is a lot closer, therefore they have to angle it to that mark more than they actually do. Even when sliding on 30, my ball still goes pretty damn straight to hit the 10 board or so down lane, even though it looks like I have to throw it really far out to get it there.
@stephenrodwell3164 5 жыл бұрын
Charlie Odom the reason you use 5 is because of your drift during approach, 2 boards left drift 2+5=7. The reason it is called the rule of 7 is because the distance between the centre line on the ball and the inside of the slide foot is 7 boards. All bowlers have a personal number and can work it out. There is a formula to calculate all shots using this rule.
@charlieodom9107 5 жыл бұрын
@@stephenrodwell3164 wrong....I don't drift. The reason has to do with 3 things: The spot I pick on my foot to line up with, how close I release the ball to my ankle, and the angle I am bent over at the foul line. Since I line up with the inside of my foot, and the ball passes within MM of my ankle. It is only 5 boards. The board I line up with on my approach is the exact spot I slide, within MM. The only exception is when I shoot corner pins. I deliberately walk to my target.
@kylemoore7866 5 жыл бұрын
Charlie Odom good point. As the ball goes 40 foot it only went right 20 inches. Or not even if sliding on 30 the ball probably laid down on 23-25 on really ball only travels right 15”

When I was in junior league years ago, I hit my ankle pretty badly and been tentative and swinging away from it since then. Instead of 7, Kegel said I was around 10-12 boards so I am losing a lot of leverage. Any tips or drills would be great! I love the videos! Looking forward to the podcast!

Hey JR, Over the couple of month of bowling 🎳 league my teammate informed me to stop bowling my ball short or inside my target being the 2nd arrow. He said to roll it side and trust my ball. I use the second arrow or or 9 or 8 board. When I roll it inside my target spot I see my ball rolling past the head pin left towards the 4 pins take out the 4-7-8.

Jeffrey Pelletier the leading cause of misses inside of target is late timing. When the timing is late the body tries to compensate by pulling down from the top of the swing. Easiest fix, start the ball a second sooner or find a coach familiar with the Mark Baker system of timing to assist in correcting it.

I ‘ve never understood how you can stand at say the 22nd board swing the ball straight back and walk to the foul line and release it and hits say the 5th board. When I do it the ball goes straight down the lane to the pins. It follows a path parallel to the sides of the lane. some people have said to square your feet, hips and shoulders to the arrow that is your mark. If you do this, you will walk at an angle to the foul line. When I watch other bowlers, they appear to square up with the foul line but the ball goes toward the gutter and hooks back to the pocket. I’ve always heard “move to the left and aim at the same mark.” I’ve never had anyone explain how to do that. They always say “you just do and it works every time”. It would be nice if you could help me understand. Thanks in advance for you help. Bob

@TheVlad1616 5 жыл бұрын
Al Farrow it doesn’t matter really. If you use inside of slide foot, like I do, then your # will likely be 5 or so (since your reference point is slightly right of where 7 is calculated from). It is the same concept though. You need to determine where you’re sliding to be able to throw straight up 10, 5, wherever. Then you’ll know how far right your lay down is based on your slide - whatever point you use as a reference.

@KenClay 5 жыл бұрын
He says 7 from center of face to shoulder. Your left (or right) toe is not in line with the center of your face. The inside edge of your shoe where the big toe connects to your foot is in line with the center of your face (sternum,body,etc). If you use a different part of your shoe than that, then your number will be less than or greater than the distance from body center to shoulder. Also, some people have very narrow bodies (7).

Tony Barber under the Ritger training system the distance is calculated to the centre of the ball. If you place the ball on the lane and you slide foot next to it with a small clearance you can count the boards. Other training systems use other systems but coaches trained under Ritger will use this as the basis for calculations. If your release point is wider you can still use that release point to calculate your lines and angles.

Cody Daniels left foot, inside edge. Most people the ball of the foot protrudes out a little. That edge is used for lining up.

So where is the toe of my left foot supposed to point, assuming I’m on 17 throwing to 10? Straight to 17, or pointed slightly right towards 10? Then of course axis tilt comes into play...yes?

What he's saying is that if you want to play straight up 10, you stand on 15-18 (depending on your walk) and walk straight with a straight backswing, and with every board left of 17, hitting the same mark, 10, the ball goes out 2 boards farther. I think I got that correct, but that's the gist of it.

Upnet at 17 you’re playing straight so your slide foot should be straight. When you open up the angle of the slide foot is actually minute.

Was that right foot you was lining up with, made sense if so?

The 17 board is a starting point. You must try different areas until you find the spot that your able to throw the ball straight up the 10 board. Once your able to do that 3 or 4 time in a row you'll know your around the correct starting point. May help to use a plastic ball a few times in order to get the feel of throwing the straight.

Alright so just starting bowling, well I guess I'm just now starting to want to bowl better, been to bowling alleys with friends for years now, but either way, I know this guy knows what he's talking about but maybe I dove too deep lol man said hit 10 stand of 5 to 15 on 27 and numbers numbers numbers lol from a learned perspective I'm sure this is all basic, but to a newbie it was quite entertaining as gibberish lol

So with this do you need to keep your feet parallel at the start? Or does body body tilt come into play?

You should always be facing your target and you should slide towards your target

@@Tenpindoctors Can you do a video explaining that? How are you supposed to walk straight but keep your body towards your target if you are throwing to the right? There is something in execution of that which I don't get.
@ricweber1344 5 жыл бұрын
@@Tenpindoctors e.g. if I need to slide towards my target which is say 10 boards to the right of my release point I would need to walk at that same angle towards the foul line wouldn't I?

@@Tenpindoctors You may need a video in regards to that. For instance, if I am targeting 8 at the arrows but playing 5 at the breakpoint do I stand 15 and adjust my feet left until I hit that break point? I am sure many of us would appreciate if you were to delve into this.

So what about for two hander who are supposed to drift left more dose the same system still work?
@CrazyCatLady552 5 жыл бұрын
Yes, just calculate your drift and start that many boards further right.

Emerald Sin yes, the system is based on your slide point, not starting point. If you drift 15 left, and want to throw straight up 10, you should start on 2 board.
