    Please, never take this video down. It is by far the most interesting, most instructional video I've seen on the modern game. Kudos to you for putting it together.

    I've been bowling for 17 years-since I was five. This is easily the most informative video I've seen in that time. Great work, Dean. And thanks for posting!

    This was a great study and I was talking with my pro shop tech about this same subject. There are so many moving parts in reagards to this game that if you want to be good you have to master them. This one is one of the hardest to do, but when you can command this techique along with your mental game you will be a hard player to stop. Thank you for taking time out and doing this study. I can't see why anyone would waste time to say anything negative about this clip.

    @tfleenor82 12 лет назад

    This is incredible. My game has improved drastically simply from watching, re-watching, studying, and mimicking the things Dean points out in this video. This is, bar none, the best video on bowling mechanics, form, technique, and execution. No question.

    Excellent video. Glad to see the variety of swings and releases. Especially happy to see you included the left handers.Visualizing seems to be much easier for the bowler to understand. Appreciate the work that was put into this.

    Awesome video. I took up bowling last year and ended the season with a decent average for a rookie (175 ). I've hit a "sophmore slump" and my average has plummeted to 160. This video has helped me see some of the things I've been ignoring this year and also some new things I can try. Thanks

    @BigTae77 9 лет назад

    Going from a two finger style of bowling to the traditional way with my thumb in the ball. This video is helping me study to be better at releasing the ball. Thank you...this has to be the best instructional bowling video on the web Dean Champ

    @jmartin4955 11 лет назад

  • @RichardKovacsics
    @RichardKovacsics 11 лет назад

    I like this video for a few reasons. First and foremost, it does not try to "teach" someone a correct way of bowling, but analyzes the professionals and reports on the key aspects of their game. Secondly, it shows a great mix of players, all with different approaches and neglects to mention them because all of these key parts of the pros' games can be adapted to any efficient approach. Excellent video!

  • @judasjoe
    @judasjoe 11 лет назад

    Sleeper video of the modern release broken down.
    A lot of people glaze over the topic with a bunch of general knowledge, but this video breaks down each stage of the release with multiple examples. This is so important because no release is exactly the same, but the basic principles applied are.
    A+ even with no audio commentary. Some words of description and then video evidence. If a picture is worth a thousand words then video might be worth millions!

  • @SimAlex20000
    @SimAlex20000 12 лет назад

    i pitch in kickball and have started studying bowling to see if those skills are transferrable -- and i believe the answer is definitely yes. this video has given me some great ideas technique-wise to try out with my kickball pitching mechanics. fantastic work, thanks for posting.

  • @stevehinchey9013

  • @stephenvance4867
    @stephenvance4867 11 лет назад

    Thanks for a great look at the swing. It seems really easy to mimic their swings when you watch in full speed. This really opened up my eyes for my problems with hooking the ball. This will definitely give a few things to try when I'm practicing and hopefully that will translate into more consistent scores for my game.

My Rev rate has definitely gone up, which is something I've wanted to have happen for a long time. like dude, your video seriously helped me a lot. Took a couple weeks because everything felt weird at first, but now I'm comfortable with it all

  • @Fulblade
    @Fulblade 9 лет назад +1

    1 verbiage/terminology refinement: knee continuation vs. center of gravity or maybe stance. What you are terming as knee continuation is an effect of the bowlers transitioning from a strong core, vertical upper body, well balance plant with their ball in hand to a stance which maintains their center of gravity without the ball and compensating for momentum. The key is ballanced, strong plant step prior to throwing the ball allows them to grip the ball more effectively and release it with those extra revs.

  • @checho016
    @checho016 12 лет назад

    I was like you 2 months ago, but you have to keep practicing.. you just need to relax, the movement is so natural at the end that when you start hooking the ball it becomes automatic. I had a lot of help watching videos like this, my mistake was that I needed to slow the speed a little so I can cup the ball in a better way and get more revs. Hope this helps.. and great video!

  • @krylesangerbeaver
    @krylesangerbeaver 11 лет назад

    I bowled my first 700 this past weekend but always looking to get better, I think I'll have to take a look at my release in a lot of detail. I like the fact of following your head for better timing, thumb pointing down in the end. See if I can incorporate that in my style. Thanks for the video!

  • @humberto300
    @humberto300 11 лет назад

    The ¨cup un-cup¨ of the release has to do with revs as much as it has to do with control, if you ¨hit up¨on the ball, then your ball motion gets very agressive and jumpy. Thats why so many of them follow through to the left side, trying to ¨roll¨ the ball, not ¨grab¨ it.
    Great video.

  • @pryymetyyme
    @pryymetyyme 11 лет назад

    Excellent video! I've been working on getting more revs on my ball to help me open the lanes up a lil when they start to break down.

  • @olleeuren2
    @olleeuren2 11 лет назад

    The thumb down thingy is awesome it made my scores alot higher and i hooked the ball more! :D thanks!

  • @jamesbarker277
    @jamesbarker277 12 лет назад

    Very nice!! It should also be obvious that different patterns require differences in hand, swing arc, cupping and many other mechanical attributes of the ball release.

  • @Pldumonde
    @Pldumonde 11 лет назад

    Great video. It's funny because I just four finished watching the shark open which you have clips of in this video. Chris Barnes bowled a 300 that game! I'm trying to improve from 170 to the 200s and this video helps a lot.

    • @garvin9939
      @garvin9939 22 дня назад

      came 9 years later to laugh because that follow through makes it pretty much impossible to hit up on it, which far too many people do. I've had a gold coach tell me to try and emulate mine closer to his when I have that problem.

  • @C6evolution2008

    @Snewter 12 лет назад

    I sound similar to kevall1. Started "serious" bowling (i.e.: bought a ball, shoes, learned a hook) in April. Finished summer league with a 173 average, but then I broke my right wrist in August (ice hockey) and am just now getting back to my right side after surgery. (I bowled left in the meantime, high game 220! :) But as I get back to "form", this video should be GREAT for helping better my technique which still needed a lot work. THANKS Dean!

  • @shuumai
    @shuumai 12 лет назад

    Excellent! Confirmed things I know and taught me a few more. If you're going to analyze the 2-handed approach in Part 2, I can't wait to see it! I've been analyzing and using the style for at least a year or two. Looking forward to Part 2 either way.

    I've been taking lessons for a month and in that month, my average has gone from 137 to 172. My monthly average for September was 150. My October average was 189.
    These are the techniques that my coach teaches.
    It takes considerable work to accomplish these techniques, but they do pay off.
    I'm a believer and so are those who used to laugh at my bowling. :D

  • @tonymoore9128
    @tonymoore9128 8 лет назад

    Dean thanks for making this video. I have been looking for this exact lesson! I am an unconventional bowler I guess. I learned to bowl with a 16 pound ball many years ago when i was much lighter and the ball felt much heavier so to get the spin like everyone else i had to hold the ball in the cup of my hand and roll it off the left side but I got pretty good with that. Years later I am getting back into it and I am still good that way but really want to be more graceful. I am even having trouble getting full extension on the back swing in primal fear of dropping the ball as i did in my youth, so embarrassing lol. I am sure i will be watching this video at the lanes tomorrow.

  • @raezor82
    @raezor82 11 лет назад

    I think there's a correlation between knee continuation and the swing plane. The knee bend improves your balance at the line, which allows you to tilt your upper body to the side, which makes for a swing that is easier and can be more inside because of the extra clearance.

  • @therunningpianist42
    @therunningpianist42 12 лет назад

    The outward movement is just extending your arm. It's the horizontal movement in the push-away. In the stance, your arm is bent but it is extended in the push-way so that it can do the whole pendulum free armswing thing. With a "hinge" push-away, this extension of the arm looks less pronounced and the arm just drops more, rather than going out in front of the torso really far.

  • @VapinHaYn

  • @Choc576
    @Choc576 12 лет назад

    Outstanding analyses, something to watch over and over. Even if we can't duplicate, at least we can get similar? What I mean is, remember, how you tried something in the past and could never seem to get it, yet if you kept at it - even if you gave up trying to do it, "suddenly" you were doing it? (Or at least something verisimilar to it?) But, be cautious, last season I had to stop bowling for a couple weeks when I injured myself trying a new style of release. It takes physical conditioning.

    @xxshadow17xx 12 лет назад

    I was looking at my backswing too and found that its mostly in my push that gives the height to my backswing. If I push off harder with my legs, with the ball farther from my body, it does go higher but It actually has messed up my timing so I've gone back to what feels comfortable.

    Good. About knee continuation. I pretty much do not slide at all, so the only way I guess I can continue my knee forward is if my arm ends up way over the foul line.
