I'd like you to create a video showing Increased Pressure on the ring finger versus the middle finger as you're releasing the ball to see what it does to the roll and ball reaction down lane

Please!

Thank you Benjy. Your detailed explanation is prefect! At the bottom of your swing, it appears that you you un-cup your wrist to get you thumb out creating more revs. Can you explain this in detail and possibly provide drills to help improve that?

That’s all nonsense

I clicked on the video because I saw in the thumbnail the different positions of the pinky finger and pointer finger in the various balls to control the hook. I was surprised and disappointed that there was no discussion about the finger positions shown in the thumbnail.

Now do TILT & explain when and how to use different tilt angles.

I have 20 degree tilt and about 30 rotation. I want to learn how to lower my tilt and raise my rotation

Quick question. Can you go over when to take your thumb out of the ball. I’m starting to feel I get more hook when I take my thumb out first and use my 2 fingers. A lot of Yt videos don’t go over this concept

Can you show how to release ball with a wrist device . I’m not strong enough yet to cup it so I use a wrist device

Tucking the pinky hurts way too much for me. I use a collar grip, meaning my wrist is already in a cocked position holding the ball, as I lack and have always lacked, the wrist strength to torque the ball during the swing. My average right now on book is 205. My drawback is due to how I hold the ball and throw, I haven't the slightest clue how to develop more revs. I can change my axis by how the ball rolls off my index finger, for spares mostly, but if the lanes are too wet, I'm kinda screwed. On dries lanes I'm okay.

Better if more actual slow motion demonstration while telling us how. 9/10 of the video are theoretical

how do you get behind the ball with high axis rotation? whenever i try it feels like i’m letting go to the side of the ball and giving it the “suitcase” release rather than being behind the ball

@robertjamieson6507 26 күн бұрын

I struggled with this until recently. The suitcase happens because your elbow pops out. It’s hard for me to explain because I’m not a pro or a teacher, but I fixed this problem recently so hear me out. You need to learn to keep the ball in a good position in the swing. Close to your body. Concentrate on keeping your elbow IN until the last minute. Also, to help this even more, use your index finger to 1. Get below the equator and 2. It cocks your wrist which helps you stay behind the ball. I wish i could explain better because I struggled for YEARS with your exact question

Do you coach ?

All you bowlers , what finger turns the ball? I was told this bout 45 years ago.

@derekj4 21 күн бұрын

That took waaay too long to get to actually showing the technique. I skipped to the last 2 minutes.

Why is it these videos don't show and teach basics like how to pick up spares. Oh. I know! It's boring and not fancy. Stop already with the look at me videos and start teaching basics.
