Fun bowling with my nephew

Went bowling with my nephew this past Friday and made an updated video. Come along ways from his slingshot video a few years ago.

Looks good.  Mechanically, he's very sound, good control and balance throughout the approach.  Keep up the good work.

does have good mechanics. the only thing i can see is with alot of his shots instead of coming straight through he crosses his body with his follow through. Looks good though keep up the good work.

That kid throws a sick ball. Smooth, controlled, overall wow! How old is he if you don't mind me asking? I remember my first Urethane ball when I was 12 and it brings back memories!  Is he naturally a lefty or did you train him to be?  LOL!!! Just joking.  My daughter is 4 weeks old and I already told my wife that no matter what hand is dominant, she's going to be a left bowler!!!

He is naturally a lefty but like his dad and grandmother can do a lot of crossovers right or left depending on what the activity.

Ive never been crazy about the follow through coming across the face but a lot of pros do it so I can say its an issue if your consistent.

It seems to me that he's crossing over because of size/arm strength.  He doesn't have the build yet to get into the ball and uses the cross over to compensate for lack of arm strength.  I think it's something he'll grow out of.  Keep working with him and he's sure to be top notch.  I wish I had the coaching that is available now a days when I was 12!
