I agree with JohnP, find yourself a good coach. They will help you break the game down into different steps. STANDING & HOLDING THE BALL, YOUR APPRAOCH, SLIDE, BACK SWING & FOLLOW THROUGH, HAND POSITION & RELEASE POINT. Now a good coach will not throw all of this on you at once. They will slowly work with you on each item until you feel comfortable. But one big thing that I can say is, SPEED KILLS. not saying you have to slow down to a crawl, but throwing it 20mph will not help the weight block. The ball that you bought will hook, you just need to give it a chance. But find some bowlers that average in the 190's and talk to them. Watch them bowl and see what they are doing. The PRO's have been throwling their ball that way for years. But most PRO's can adjust to what the lane is giving them, they do not wait for the lane to adjust to them. But do not get upset, just keep rolling and it will come to you. You have to start somewhere, why not at the beginning.

BOWLING IS FUN NO MATTER WHAT YOU SCORE. BUT A 300 IS ALWAYS NICE.
