I just wanted to thank everyone who responded to my post about pinching the ball.  I bit the bullet and went to forward pitch in the thumbhole.  Such an amazing difference!!!!!  I am getting more rotation with loads more control and am actually able to stay smooth at the line!!!!!  First 8 balls with forward pitch were on target and were strikes!!!  I am sorry that I don't remember your names and I cannot find my post.  Thank you though!  I see a bright bowling future ahead...........
