started doing this naturally tonight at a tournament. Definitely going to drill it next week. i picked up a 7-6-10 tonight doing basically this technique. and every time i executed correctly on a strike it was like thunder crashing when my ball hit the pins.
I have been bowling over 40 years and never considered staring at the ten pin to be part of the process. I'll give it a crack and see if it has an effect. Maybe it will intimidate the ten so I leave less of them.
Come on folks, dont fall for all this mumbo jumbo snake oil nonsense. Use that to slick the lanes. Instead, just try to score a 300... Thats the ticket right there. Lol Seriously though im learning constantly with these videos. Very glad they showed up in my feed
Hi Rick, Great video, thank you! I'm new at bowling and my question might seem dumb. On the strike ball line up, I hear if you miss left move your feet left. But say you move your feet 6 boards left, do i still aim for the 2 point line boards. Also do i approach the target on a diagonal or sling my arr or ball to the left? I'm right handed. Thanks!
Thanks for the question. It is certainly not a dumb question, it is in fact one of the most common points of confusion. In most instance when people are telling you miss left, move left, miss right, move right they are not taking into account the lane pattern they are only talking about tweaking the shot you are doing. In the instance that you have to move your feet majorly you absolutely need to move your target with you. In the way it refers to this video you would move your initial target left then move your focal point right. The direction you throw the ball would be controlled by changing your focal point. The target you are aiming at is primarily changed by moving your feet and changing where you slide, in essence changing your target. Any questions, let us know!
Nice video. I thought that it is called 3-point because one of the points is the exit point or breakpoint, yet you only describe looking at 2 points (focal and visual target). Why is this?
Great information. I am just curious about the focal point when you need to adjust for lane condition. Do you continue to look at the same focal point after you make a 2 and 1 or 4 and 2 adjustment to the left?
thats the general idea, yes, but this video doesn't quite explain the concept as it was originally shown. there is another video on here that explains the process a little more clearly. The original video's title is 3 point targeting with quiet eye, you should find it quickly. Highly recommend it. I started using this about a year ago, and my average has increased over 10 pins.
so for every arrow target we go for, our slide foot should be 6 boards away at release? Where do we get 6 boards from , is that a calculation done somewhere? so if im aiming at 5 board or 1st arrow, i have to make sure my slide foot is at 11 board when i release the ball?
You draw a line from the focal point back to your visual target, arrows/dots to determine which of the seven arrows (if you chose arrows) to aim at. The focal point is determined by the exit point ( pl/pattern length - 31 = x

This type of information is for when you really start bowling...and not on THS oil. Great informative video.

Thank you very much, was really helpful

great gears, rotatory af
a very scientific study. i like it. thnx
Very informative. Thanks you!

The Therion 3rd point is where you need to slide to throw on that line.

Nice
Shouldn't 3rd pt be where ball breaks..iebbp, arrows, dots rather than pins, arrows, dots..180 avg bowler looking to take step up
I’m so confused

6 TO 7 boards is rought the distance from the center of your chest to the center of your swing arm and the release position.
Why wouldn't I want to look at the pocket, then the breakpoint then the arrow.

WaitWhat??🤔
Too many different ways to do things but too many bowling gurus
Paralysis by analyses. Kind of over thinking things, just throw the damn ball!
And this is how you end up being a 140 average bowler.
