Nice to see that it these are non-edited shots. But you fall off to the right after each shot, so I suppose you put a lot of muscle into the release, off-timing...

Good vid KVD!  Layout looks better than I anticipated for wheelin it a bit on a THS.
As for the bowler ...the mechanics are fine.  I had the opportunity to watch him throw the ball a few months back.  Not everyone is textbook.

Ball looks great aesthetically, but that is an extraordinary drilling, at least to me.

  What is this drilling designed for?  A control type drilling or what.  Having the pin that far from the grip and the MB next to the thumb hole seems a bit extreme.  I can understand why you've never had a drilling like this because it is the first one I've ever seen like it.

  Ball seems to react fine with a strong arcing roll.  Might be something I will look into ( the drilling ).

Nice video VD. Also, interesting layout choice. Looks very controlled and predictable.

I would guess the pin is either on or very close to your VAL, but fairly close to your PAP.  Generally I would expect that to give length and smoother controlled backend (and it appears that is what you are getting)...

Yep, it's Whalen-M66 Bowl Pro Shop

Who's this?

By the way, I'm paying $1.00 a game at Nottkes Bowl, Battle Creek, MI (summer rates)

nice bowling... nice ball

this drilling seems to even out the o/u a ball could get or generate with this high axis and revs.

Nice!

Ken this is John Osten...you may remember me you may not...that layout will work nice for you at Nottkes because i see it being a lot smoother for you and you won't end up inside of 5th arrow...
