You are a leftey tha's why no one will talk to you j/k
There is a guy in our house that plays about that line
with an xfactor. he gets about the same typ of reaction.
I think he actuall plays alittle straighter, alot like a norm Duke
but not that far out.

I don't think that was straight up.Looked like it was a 12-5 swing.Work on holding the shot longer and not raising up this will give you more consistency with out the chance of making the ball push on you sometimes.

You have good last step timing with a good power/leverage step.Your follow through is good but your spine is tilted more than the recommended forward 10 degree angle.I never pay any attention to the spine angle it just helps when trying to develop accuracy and consistency.

Overall not bad but if you want to improve these are places to start.

Thanks everyone For the imput..I appreciate it..Leftside who i think of as my coach since he has helped me tons said the same thing as You did fluffer..

I was playing a little swing shot with that..That is very rare for me and the x factor as i rev it a little less then leftside but rev it pretty well...I usualy always have to swing the X factor..I cant seem to get away from those stone 8s..hahaha..When i practice thursday night i left 7 of them in a 4 game period..and a 9 pin too..It drives so hard.. anybody else with imput?

I also wanna give a thanks to Card79 for changing my vid over so everyone can see it and to leftside too for putting it on a website..Thanks everyone!

To avoid the 8, 9, 7 and 10. Do not throw it fast just medium speed. When I throw my XReloaded fast i leave a stone 8 when I slow it down, strike. Impress yourself nobody else. Jason Couch has not won a lot of tournaments he has just been lucky.

Jabroni,


quote
W.....T......F are you talking about?

Your lack of proper language clouds your intellectual brain. What I am talking about is that in order to be a good bowler you do not need to have a big hook or fast ball speed. As an example I point to Jason Couch's (good bowler) big hook and speed just 2 Championship appearances no wins. Then you have Mike Scroggins with 4 Championship appearances with his slow delivery that puts you to sleep. Robert Smith(monster hook and speed) with one win and one Championship appearance. Norm Duke one win and 3 Championship appearances. All in an average 0f 10 events.

A big angle hook and a fast ball is not the shot that will give you the best consistency and accuracy to winning tournaments in a consistent way. You need the ball to move between the pins and the pins hitting each other. Not the ball speeding thru the pins and the pins flying into the back. Then you find yourself facing designer type split or spares that you cannot take them all down. Leaving open frames. Which causes to loose in crucial moments.

That is why Earl Anthony with his wimp and limp release won 41 tour titles. He just had an accurate and consistent release. He let the ball and pins do their part of the job. I never had seen him bowling before until this past Sunday during the flash backs that were shown during the tournament that Walter Ray Williams won.

Visualize the slide, release, skid, roll, angle and observe the chain reactions of what you are trying to accomplish.

That is all that I was trying to express. Not haste and waste.

No offense taken in your expression Jabroni just clarifying my view and that you did not completely understand.

I was trying to just express a friendly opinion and people take it too personal here. That is why there are so many lawsuits in USA. Did not mean to hurt peoples feelings.

What is really sad is when offensive words are express using periods, dots. Instead of trying to understand what others are trying to express. Wish they could express rational thoughts with constructive opinions. I accept being corrected with reasonable answers but to be abusive verbally with ....... is not in my caracter.

Now I understand what happened in the Lane and Storm forums.

Case close and Good-bye.
