My advice to you is stop using 10lb balls.... Change to an 8lb ball and it might deflect loads more to take out the corner pins...

my initial thought is that you are using too much angle early

My advice: stop throwing 2 handed.

Go back to one hand, and helicopter spin like some do in China. Takes the oil out, and as flat and pancake-y as your shot is, the ball will deflect straight into that corner pin.

A duckpin ball may help you better.

I don't know about duckpin, but I was watching some candle pin on youtube.

That's harsh..

Saw a guy throw the ball hard, and only take the 1 and 9 pins out of a full rack.

Probably need a rubber ball on the fresh. Then switch to plastic once they break down.

Rubber balls can leave black marks on the approaches and lanes. I'm sure your proprietor wouldn't appreciate it. They're a major pain to get off.

You have to consider your layout!!! Didn't anybody tell you?

Since you don't have finger holes, if you hold the ball with the pin in different positions. You basically have different layouts. Which will affect how the ball rolls (or bounces in your case) down the lane.

So where is your Pin located?

If your plastic ball doesn't have one, wheres the CG that should be close enough?
