Everyone knows this but .....
« on: January 05, 2006, 02:45:56 AM »
ME!

Went to our bouncy wet dry top hat the other night for league.

From last year being the team high average bowler and had a chance to be first 200 average bowler in the center from the left side in 5 years!  Didn't make it.

This year in another center that just is tough the righties have skied and we've crisscrossed.

So worse and bouncier than ever.  Now guy from last year....say's "let me coach YOU tonight!

OK it can't hurt.  

SO he says you have to move WAY right(lefty) and keep throwing where you are throwing.  Throwing at 5 pin of adjoining lane...strikes!!!!!!!  Total annhilation covering the world.  Ball is looking very energetic....lots of revs good speed for me!!!!  I have it going on(second game of course).

All of a sudden I go even deeper with feet and ball just seems to be running out of gas....  Finally he says...whatever you do....find more oil and see if you can keep the petal to the metal.  So I go two and two right and it seems fast now but doesn't deliver the hit.  So in reference to 2nd game I go 1 and 2 move...one with the feet and 2 with the boards at the arrows!  WOW.

Speed is up....ball is not laboring to cover the world and I start really movin the pins.

So the summary is.  On severe wet dry ...sometimes 1 and 2 moves can really get one a great angle on the pocket!

REgards,

PS I had been moving parallel a lot on these synthetics but this was unique move for me and it worked VERY well!

Wow a lefty that moves his feet just kidding, for me being a tilt challenged bowler moving left is he11 for me. I have good revs about 10 degrees of tilt and higher ball speed, so i labor and labor at getting good ball reaction when moving inside. I usually have to use to strong of a ball to get it too corner but then the pop is gone so i tap all night. I find that more up the back for me helps tight inside lines because my normal release is around 60 degrees but i can vary it to almost 0 degrees when i try too. The tilt factor is what kills me when the heads fry and i need to move way inside, i go from thunder power to looking like a fluffer with no power.
