It looks like a useless thing, you can train all that at home even if you dont have that thing. And its little wierd that they dont have any good pictures of it.

What the heck is this supposed to DO? Looks pretty pointless to me, except for the manufacturer's cashier... nothing some hand weights would not do to your wrist?

I have used this bowling tool with my students.  I have been teaching bowling for over 17 years and just recently tried the ezbowl.  The ezbowl allows the student or bowler to get immediate feed back on their release position by watching the different rotations of the ezbowl and the different wobble characteristics of the many different hand releases.  I would highly recommend this tool for the beginner and the bowler that wants to perfect his or hers release.

Kind of reminds me of using a Coke can to teach how to throw a curve ball OR using a cylinder to practice putting....
