Check out this throw!
« on: November 20, 2013, 10:19:42 AM »
I was watching the live feed and noticed this guy's 'different' approach.  Finally found a video to link: http://youtu.be/MMF9EoNmHI0

What the? I thought someone put it in slow motion at the top of his swing til I saw everyone else moving. That is a crazy backswing!

I see a broken wrist/hand in my future with that release.

I'm by no means Johnny Fundamentals, but that makes my style look "classic." Then again, that kid is bowing in the World Cup, and I'm here typing things about him. Obviously, one of us has had more success than the other.  :-[

I think I'll give him lane courtesy, thank you (i.e. I would hate for THAT to be in the corner of my eye a few lanes over as I'm making my approach!).

I sat here wondering why he even bothers with the first four steps, but then I figured it was to get the momentum to swing the ball up there.

Or one of us lives in a country without great bowlers.  But I doubt I could make the Antarctica team.

A lot to overcome with that swing. Might as well eliminate the first few steps and just walk up there and start
