I would be interested to know how your Viral Hybrid performs on the shot.  Sounds like a classic case of your strong equipment being too strong.

Hello bowling family!
I stand on the 35 and aim for the 15.

What does "aim for 15" mean?  15th board where on the lane - at laydown, at the arrows, at the break point?  What is your breakpoint? 

I'm not trying to be a stickler/that guy but saying "aim for 15" really doesn't tell us much of anything.  If it's 15 at the arrows, do you spray and pray that the breakpoint is somewhere between 5 and 15 and end up in the pocket with the help of the trusty THS?  If you want help, we need all the particulars to help you out.

I will answer the questions that gas been asked.
-I went to a 15LBS. ball cause I was doing wrist curls for 6 months and it feels like now that I am hurling the 14 so I decided to try a 15. When I tried a friends 15 before the wrist curls I was tired and my wrist hurt in the middle of the second game.
- I will throw the Viral Hybrid in the video and see what happens.
- I said aiming for the 15 board(arrow) when the correct bowling term is rolling the ball through 15 (I am new and bowling lingo is the struggle lol). My break point (I am guessing that is when the ball make the flip to the pins) I couldn't tell you that. I have to learn how to follow the ball down lane to see where it breaks at. I can tell you that sometimes it looks like its going in the gutter and then it flips back into the pocket (Scandal). I also sometimes look at the shadow of the 6 and 10 pin(on the floor) and throw it between the two (I don't know where the ball is rolloing cause my eyes is on the shadow of the pins)
- It could be a case of strong pieces are drilled to strong, but I figured that since my scandal is drilled strong and I did not have any problems with it.I have a Dark legend drilled to go Long and Strong and I couldn,t get with it. It went to long for me.
- I will post a video and throw different pieces because I know it's not the ball it is the bowler. I take all advice cause you'll will see things that I am doing wrong and help me straighten it out.
-I took coaching classes but the coach really did not know how to teach a two handed bowler.(waste of money)
-Ball speed SEEMS to be the same.

I'm just guessing here and I know it's hard with out a vdeo,but should I try rolling it threw 20 and have the break point at 10?

I mean make the break point at 5

roll it wherever you get the best reaction. also, have even tried touching the surface first?

"Can not hit the pocket with the Timeless"

"Driver error" sounds to be the case... in contrast, an equally true statement would be like, "I can't park the Camry"


There's no way we can tell you where to play without seeing you bowl.

Bowling is all trial and error, and being able to get as close to repeating successful shots; with the ability to adjust according to lane condition ->> let the ball be your guide over the invisible oil pattern.

Very unhappy with mt Timeless! I was looking forward to that ball coming out. Now maybe is the time to sell it!

I threw my Timeless last night and was very impressed with it. Hoping it tames down a little with a few games on it like billdozer mentioned. I definitely wouldn't say it's junk at all. No need to be a two hander either.
