Who would that be?

Greetings, I haven''t posted in a while but I need some help right now.  My main problem right now is my ball speed: my fastest speed is still a mile and half slower than your average bowler''s lowest speed.  

I''ve read the all the tips online to fix it, I''ve taken videos and shown them on other sites and I''ve talked to coaches within my area, but nothing has solved my speed problem.  They''ve helped me with other parts of my game, but while the speed of my shots is much faster than when I first started, the speed is still too slow for it to have a real impact.

I''m a bit desperate because I love this game a lot so I''m going through lengths to get the help I need.  So I ask again: if you had a problem with your game and could only choose one person in the US to diagnose and fix it, who would that be?

I''m open to anyone and I would prefer someone who has worked with the pros but you get the idea.  I don''t care about costs like that, the only thing I would prefer would be someone in Illinois, where I currently live, but I''m willing to travel across the country if need be.

A lot of people could probably help you, but if I could only see one person, Mark Baker is guaranteed the best.

BILL HALL.Unless you have had your brain and game picked apart by BILL HALL.Then you
you do not know what you are missing.

Mike Jasnau I believe would be excellent.  The Kegel training camp is really good too.  Not sure if Del does any of the training(since he's in upper management there) but he would also be another person who I wouldn't mind learning from.  In the Midwest you have Bill Spigner.  I can't say enough about him.  He's a Gold level coach and has helped numerous people including some top professionals.  You can see his column monthly in the Bowler's Journal publication too.  So that would be +2 for Mr. Spigner!

There's a number of people I'd choose but I couldn't pick just one because I don't know exactly how each works with a student.  Mike Jasnau, Ron Clifton, and Mark Baker are at the top of my list though.
