How do you play on a reverse block?
« on: February 21, 2007, 12:04:31 AM »
In a few weeks im bowing in a tournament that puts out a reverse block. I have been having trouble trying to find a line that works well for me, when I try to play outside, the ball never recovers and hits light, when I try to swing the ball I get alot of over/under reactions. I was just curious on how some of you guys play on the reverse block and what kind of equipment do you throw on this shot.

Thanks,
