I wouldn't say that - the only difference is the way the wrist flicks and what fingers do the lifting. I've back-up bowled my entire life, my wrist just refuses to turn the 'right' way. Just means I look like a lefty until you watch my hand.
@psyborg06 5 ай бұрын
@@lauralyn8785 Also, your wrist is normally strongest through a supinated position, with force going through the pinky and ring fingers as that's the major flexors in the forearm connect.

He definitely has got some talent.... I think the lights and cameras impacted him enough to throw him off his game. Plus, rolling against Darren has quite a bit of intimidation factor mixed with excitement from meeting a celebrity pro athlete.

Hey Darren I am hoping this can get to Gee. I am a backup bowler as well (for about 20 years) and just wanted some advice on what bowls he uses that works well for him and if he could provide any tips I have stalled out in progress and since its very rare for there to be a good amount of backup bowlers I can't seem to find help.

And another guy who actaully throws it decent using a purple hammer...it was awful, the left lane was 5 boards tighter than the right lane 😂
