what causes leaving 9 pins for a right hander?
« on: February 23, 2009, 10:18:45 AM »
i got my ebonite werewolf out and threw 6 strikes in practice and i thought it was my nite. I proceeded to leave 3 solid 9 pins after the first game! in a general sense what causes this? is it the ball? feel like throwing it in the river after that!

Why throw it in the river? Do you believe it is the ball's fault?
Sorry.
Move your feet deeper, use a deeper target at the arrows and use a breakpoint slightly further inside, like 7 instead of 5, as an example,
OR amp your ball speed up slightly,
OR use slightly less rotation at the release point.

I like to move a 1/1 or 2/1 left for 9s.

I had a track rising that I loved the look it gave me but for the life of me I could not adjust with it.tried different surface adjustment as well as adjusting on the lanes.sometimes it's just a match up thing.

Just adjust slightly.  Don't throw the ball in the river....lol.

Leaving a solid 9 pin is just like leaving a ringing 10 or solid 8....you threw a  good shot that was in the pocket.  I bet if you were to throw that same shot 3 more times, you'd strike and not see that 9 pin again.
