Your video requires some extra software from Real Player that I cannot get.  Please try to put it into Media Player as well.

bob, i use black tape when my thumb is tight, it releases easy.

I know two weeks ago I was bowling on Thursday and it was pretty funny I must admit. I felt like I never bowled before! I couldn't find a consistent release, my backswing probably was never the same throughout 7 games, my timing was way off. (what else is new?)

But somedays, as said by the guy who works there whom I know pretty good and is a good bowler having thrown numerous 300's, your mechanics are just off on somedays no matter what you do. The saturday after my form was back and I felt good (not that it raised my scores any). Sometimes you have a really bad day and you cant get anything to work. For me, it's usually my timing when my release and aim is way off and when I start crossing over.
