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 7 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.

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 😂

Looking good, once i got to high school, the coaches said i should change my game from a backup, averaged 195 at the time, just shows if work hard enough at something you can excel at it, wonder if i had stuck with it i would've got better, can't complain though got a scholarship and i have the coaches to thank for that. idk about the green patch though on his jersey, we all know bill "the elitist" freitas would tell him he would be way better as a conventional bowler like how he criticized the wrong foot and the backwards bowler.

This guy looks really good, and he started with a scary double. But he ended up with a 165 game. I think the pressure of going up against DTang made him tighten up to throw way too many bad balls. By himself, with no pressure? I bet he throws 230 games easy. Haha
