Well moe pointed out the first thing I noticed, when you walk your left foot steps out instead of forward while you walk, and when you come to your release you simply slide your left foot forward and try to bring your whole body back to that foot for balance. That simply is not going to work consistently. Make sure that you are walking straight but make sure each foot has its own path. Go to
www.bowlingknowledge.com and read some of Fred Bordens tips they will help you. The other thing is when your coming to finish make sure you are stepping in with your left foot. Doing this will put you under your center of gravity and essentially help you with your balance.
On Edit: watched a few more times, don't mean to pick you apart or anything but I am actually pretty good with my physical game so I will give you a few things to also work on. When you start your pushaway try not to bend so much at the waist, this may also be a reason for offbalance and it cuts off leverage I know I use to do it myself. Also keep that shoulder up, don't drop it just to get closer to the lane, that may be linked with the bending at the waist though. The last thing I can see is your hand position at the end. It is bent out almost in a cradle like position(not sure how to describe it) Try not to turn the ball so much, just keep your wrist cupped and follow straight up with your hand, let your thumb get out and use your fingers to follow through, it looks like you want to use your entire arm to make the ball rotate. Sorry but these are just a few things I would recommend, someone more experienced might be of more help.

-I will forever love this great game, I love the people and the competition, I only wish the best would get the recognition of an ATHLETE that they deserve.
