I've been working on holding my ball lower at the start of my shot and staying relaxed throughout the shot.  In case you haven't seen me bowl before, I usually have a really high backswing, and my game is usually a power game.  So, a friend  made some suggestions for me to try, because he saw I was pushing my ball through the breakpoint.  So, I did it and it worked well.  Here's a video that shows a good example of what I've been doing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9YNPhO0XAH4

I've found that I've been supporting the ball weight at the start-up mainly with my left hand, and the right hand rested on my right thigh, causing me to be able to be very relaxed at the start.

Anyways... where's this heading?

I went to practice today and had my best set I've ever shot.

X X X X X 7s/ (2-4-10) X X 8s/ (3-10) X X X 255

X X X X X X X X X X X X 300

X X X X X X X X X X 9/ (smashed a 10 pin) 289

844  (792 was my high set in league and in practice previous to today)
