I've had nearly a complete H.S. Women's Bowling season explaining: Target, boards and the approach... Of the 19 girls that came out for the bowling team (no cuts...not allowed these day) three (3) actually cared about learning this. A few began to come around when their brain start to wrap around what was counter intuitive... I wish I had come across this 4-5 weeks ago.

Thank you so much. I grew up in the old school to walk to your target and didnt know how to fix drifting to the right. I will try your advice.. and thanks you much for explaining it...

What helps me is I look at my launch board at the foul line, draw a line to my target arrow then start my approach. When I do that, my body wants to travel to the spot on the foul line with my eyes locked in at my target arrow. I was amazed how much improvement my approach has been since I started doing that!

I'd drift slightly left from standing position to two boards left post at the foul line to keep from pulling on the ball for over a year now. My average had gone up but will increase in the future.

Mike, in reviewing your video, the field of view did not include your full body on the approach. After your first step I was able see your feet on the approach. However, the information was dealt with so quickly, I was unable to see you "walking into your swing". What I did see was your ball moving well left of the strike pocket. I am not certain the subject "walking into the swing" was properly defined or explained fully to observe what it was in your approach that was misaligned.

Thank you Sirs, a video that hit very close to home with me. Good advice on how to fix it 👊😎

I use the walk towards my mark to help push the ball further down the lane in dry conditions

@leedog168 6 ай бұрын

For me, I can start anywhere on the approach and still hit my target at the angle needed for proper trajectory.. but then I also practice blindfold..I suggest everyone give it a try

Don't get it. Sounds like you are recommending everyone (right handers) drift left rather than walk straight. My coach told me the best bowlers can walk a balance beam.

I'd use one of my street shoes as the boundary. But my issue is a variable left drift

You stated that you were standing on 25 and then walked towards your swing. To correct this you moved to 20 and walked away from your target and finished on 22. Couldn't you just have moved to 22 and walked straight? That's how I've done it in the past.

@tonyguerrier2258 6 ай бұрын

You said that your left foot was on 20 and it looked like you slid on 23-24? Is that correct?

Inside of left foot

@tonyguerrier2258 6 ай бұрын

@@mikeshady2294 ok, so what board did the inside of the left foot slide on? I'm asking because I drift a bit to the left (3-4 boards) so I tend to swing the ball when I don't need to. When I take my steps shouldn't I walk to the left and then try to come back and slide on the board I started on?

That made no sense to me. Your videos need to be just a bit longer...

@jeremyjones9467 6 ай бұрын

Well tbh I think they keep it short because they have a coaching price, this is really advice that you can get from your local league. The only advice I hate is slow your feet, like that is the worst advice for me

@BigSkyBowler 6 ай бұрын

Summary: If your visual target (arrow target for most people) is too far to the right or left for a lefty of where your initial setup position is on the approach, your brain will compensate and force your body to walk towards your target (walking into your swing as they put it, I call it walking towards your target). It is quite possible to also walk away from your target (opposite direction) by targeting too close to where your standing. Doing this will cause you to miss your intended ball path. Really to be quite honest this comes down to visualizing your shot. With good visualization, it's quite difficult to look too far to the right (or left as a lefty) of where you're standing on the approach. Most league bowlers do not visualize their ball path and they also only have one reference point for their target which leads to this issue.

I agree, it made no sense. What is the fix. I know where I want to stand, I know where I want to target, and I know where I want to slide. If I am walking into my swing, as they say, what do I need to move. If I move my feet, my launch angle changes and now my pocket entry has changed.

@BigSkyBowler 6 ай бұрын

@@gregbentkowski159 keep your feet in the same place and move your eyes further left. Yes it will change your launch angle a bit, but it will likely result in a better shot.
