VIDEO SUGGESTION..How to select the right bowling ball. I've been watching a lot of bowling videos and hear mention of references like stored energy. So even though the lanes might be heavy oil a strong ball might not be the best choice? What is your thought process on ball selection based on lane conditions and pin leave?
You have no idea how much this video helped me. I’m 42 years old and my whole life I’ve thrown a straight ball in the last two weeks. I’m trying to put a hook on the ball so I can do a nice curveball. I’m having a hard time but I went to my local bowling alley today and this help me out a lot, made my role a little bit better but I just need to practice more, but thank you for this information and help me out a lot
Great video Luis !! .. I think the Pro's, depending upon conditions, are generally from about 15 degrees to 30 degrees axis rotation, most of the time. I got into studying this a bit and was really surprised how much they actually "roll the ball" up the back rather than spin the ball with a lot of axis rotation. I had this going really really well one night in practice (haven't been able to nail it since) and I was amazed at how well my ball reacted. If anything, I got more hook, not less, even though my axis rotation was only about 20 degrees. It was much easier to keep up my ball speed this way. But, I do find it more difficult to maintain a high rev-rate at the same time. The night I was getting it down, my rev-rate was really really good though, like in the 400's with a LOT less axis rotation. My ball motion was absolutely awesome! .. it is really a matter of keeping your hand UNDER and INSIDE of the ball at release with your index finger pointing straight down at time of release. It is a difficult thing to master, but that is what the pro's do. I watched a great video from Kegel Training that showed all of the great players at time of their release, and they are ALL virtually identical to each other, under the ball, inside the ball and index finger pointing straight at the floor. Players like EJ Tackett, Prather even Darren Tang. Watch some of Darren's videos and pay very close attention to his axis rotation compared to your own. Us crappy bowlers (speaking for myself) have a tendency to have a MUCH greater axis rotation than the pro's do, like 40-90 degrees type of thing, instead of 15-30 like the pro's.
11am 4/13. It would help I think to see some of your drills and instructions in slow motion, especially those about arm swing, elbow in, and release.. Good job! Thanks! Ray T
Nice one Luis.... Practice with purpose. I practice my approach and release in my basement when my schedule doesn't allow me to get to the lanes to practice as often as I would like. My axis tilt is between 35-40 degrees and I keep my hand under the ball. Only practice will maintain. These videos are good to have in your catalogue so when I suggest your channel to my friends and to folks who come up to me when i am practicing, they can look you up and find informative videos like this on top of your awesome ball reviews. 👍
I love this video, and the overall transparency with trying to improve your release. I'm currently working on the same and one suggestion that was made to me that I think has helped is when you're in your starting position, the V between your index and middle fingers should be straight up facing the pins to help keep your elbow in. It definitely felt very uncomfortable at first, but I am seeing and feeling the difference. Because I notice that your hand is tilted in while in your starting position similar to me. But good luck and keep it going!
One of my biggest issues is timing and also pushing the ball out to the right and keeping my shoulders open to allow me to get the ball right. If you could do a video on fixing timing, shoulders to get the ball to the right etc I’d really appreciate it! Love your videos man!
@@kf91274 Yeah I’m the same way on that as well except it’s not consistent through three games. Some nights it’s good and other nights I’m not consistent at all.
@@jeremygreene994 Yeah, definitely frustrating. I've always noticed that these pro bowlers we watch have basically the exact same release every time they throw. Makes you more accurate hitting your mark etc.
Bro have you ever tried standing side ways on your approach? It’s the best advice I’ve gotten since I started bowling. It stop me from tugging and chicken winging. It helped me immediately.
One thing that may be helpful for you Luis is ensuring your body is out of the way on your down/forward swing. May be too much to incorporate quickly but if you reference someone like EJ Tackett; my man gets his push away on line and then escapes the swing path making it almost impossible to chicken wing. Hopefully I explained that correctly. Anyhow, good vid bro.
Love the drills……keep showing every drill you can. Also, how about seniors bowling and how do they overcome physical limitations? I havent bowled in 34 years. In 1990 I carried a 194 average (scratch back then) with a Columbia 300 yellow dot…fingertip…….now the game has completely changed!! Omg!! I cant bend like you all do, my ball speed is 10.5-13.5, with a 14 lb ball……we had no “data” back in my days…… Terms….show us exactly what you are referring to and the effect (pros and cons) of that item…..example Axis rotation??????? Ball breaking late, breaks early, so many terms I have never heard before…… You have a good teaching manner…I hope this gives you more ideas to cover….plus, we all dont hook like these big time rollers……control of a smaller hook is more important (I think) for seniors……help!!
Luis, just a little constructive observation. You still need to get your hand much, much, MUCH more inside of the ball at release (but you ARE looking MUCH better). Your hand is still way outside of the ball. I know this is a hard thing to do, I have been working on it all year. I make some progress for a while, but my hand just continues to want to float outside. I think one reason is because my brain doesn't want to trust that my ball is going to hook unless I get my hand around the ball. But surprisingly, when I do keep my hand under and inside of the ball at release, my ball actually will hook more, not less. It's crazy when you do it correctly just how effective it is. It explains why the pro's are able to release the way they do so effortlessly and smooth. Think of Prather for example.
Also Luis if you want to try this, it really helped for me. I put the weight of the ball in the setup to the right of my hand. So I set my hand up like a backup ball almost and it was soooo much easier to release up the back. But fine tuning it is very hard for me. I can get up the back but if I want to choose between 20 degrees and 40 degrees? I can’t do it.
I am looking for Part II of How To Hook A Bowling Ball | Complete In-Depth Guide!, so please do that. I struggle the most with consistency. I feel like maybe I get lazy? not sure. Very interested in trying to raise my revs. Also, I would love to understand bowling lingo. What is the difference between Urethane and all the various Storm surfaces? What is the difference between axis rotation and tilt? What the heck IS axis rotation and tilt. Is there a bowling for dummies book to discover all these professional intricacies of bowling? Thanks!
How to read an oil pattern chart could be an informative video. Also, I'm not very good at bowling math so maybe a video explaining how to know what marks you need to get to a certain score.
Can't be giving out Jedi powers away, but it's really a feeling and a development of that feeling. And it's measured at how consistent it can be. Foundation has to be found in trial.
When your hand stays behind the ball, what makes it the ball hook? Or do you introduce a last split-second twist of the arm/wrist to get the roll started in the right direction?
The no-step can be done from the finish position so that you can have a full swing with your leg out of the way. I need to be doing these drills more often. My footwork has been abysmal lately though.
Main thing I’m trying to work on is swing direction for a 2 hander. I throw it pretty good sometimes but I don’t know where it’s going I don’t feel confident in my swing’s path and whether or not I’ll hit my target. I keep my eyes locked to it but I still managed to miss by a lot!
I felt the same way. I stopped letting my ego get in the way I dropped my ball weight and played more often. My strength in my wrist went up and i played better. Went from a 15lb to a 14lb.
How to read ball roll and make adjustments on the fly. Primarily how to read ball roll because that can be quite tricky in league/competition if you're not able to record your shot, but it's hard to talk about that without talking about making adjustments afterwards.
One other suggestion that may be helpful. When you get your hand in the ball, supinate your wrist a little more. When you’re holding the ball you’re already off to the side a lil bit.
My turbo finger grips have a very pronounced ledge where the fingers rev it, and it causes the ball to hang up on my fingers some times. Can I take a lil razor and cut that ledge off and make them more rounded?? Do they make just round grips next time I can get.
I throw a great looking ball, recently got back into bowling and a 190 average buttttttt I have my thumb hole extremely to big because if i dont the thumb gets stuck. Im not an early roller and usually land the ball before the arrows, I learned from my father who was old school and a solid 240 average and believed in making it simple, land near the arrows and it will be minimal adjustments in any conditions.; not sure if thats part of the problem
Nice job, seems like you cut down on some rotation. I noticed in the full approach at the end that you have fixed your timing. If you pause right at 15:31 you are just starting the slide and your arm is parallel to the approach on the down swing with just a touch of bend in the elbow. Practice paying off
Just scanning through my feed so forgive me if i missed this bit... Why would you go on one knee? This would make me it too far away from the body. Wouldnt it be better to stand on one leg in your finishing position?
Lou--It seems that your hand position, in your setup, is approximately at 4 or 5 o'clock, even if the inside of your elbow is tight to your ribs. Wouldn't a hand position of closer to 6 or even 7 o'clock further promote keeping the elbow "inside"? Have you ever tried that?
Slow feet. Stay within yourself ( don’t overthrow )Keep your head still. Look at target with just your eyes. Swing close to slide ankle, through the ball , elbow in , hand working the inside of the ball. Hand follows through the ball after release , reach for your target - and bring the inside of your bicep to your throw side ear. Focus on your technique until it’s natural. In today’s game and lane conditions, normal house shots. Start out looking at 3 board targets. If 10 is your target, allow yourself 1 brd left and 1 brd right. As you get more accurate. Cut it down to 2 boards. When you get where you can consistently target and roll your ball over 1 board. You’ll be ready to learn how to play every arrow/ targeting spot on the lane. Don’t pigeon hole yourself into only playing the 1st 15 boards of the lane.
Suggestion video: If possible, could you do the same drills for no thumb bowlers. It's hard finding drills & tutorials for no thumb. Thanks in advance, and keep doing your thing, bruh.
His tilt and axis rotation are different every shot. His timing is his biggest problem. And it’s affecting his arm swing, release. Causing the chicken wing and erratic release/ ball rolls
I’d like to see a drill on increasing power / ball speed. I feel like my release is decent but I only throw it 13-14mph. Would like to add power without sacrificing accuracy
I’ve watched a lot of these exact types of videos, everyone says to come straight being the ball, yet every one looks like the and is on the side when they are releasing. Yet it is never covered. How does it go straight when you are on your knees yet hook when you are using an approach if you do the exact same thing? Where are you adding rotation to get the hook?
I thibk for me is my damn trail leg. It's like I go blank right as I go into the slide or the step I do. I notice my trail leg and foot mainly stop me.
I found if you leave your follow-through up, you'll be able to tell where your hand was on the ball. If my palm was facing the left, I spun the ball. If my palm was facing me, I am as up the back as I can get.
Just a note but your talking about showing examples of what you did wrong in the past and overlay with improvement yet not shown in edit. It makes the video seem incomplete or that the editing was rushed and it wasnt added. Just a tip and not trying to be rude, simple recommending if your incorperating things when you speak make sure you add them in editing :)
This is not legal for Bowling, but what I did was add a lot more side weight using metal washers then that forces you to release, right. If release correctly that ball will hook a whole lot we could throw it out to the edgeboard and it always come back even a urethane. Release it incorrectly. It won’t hook at all.
I’ve watched both this video as well as your “How to hook a bowling ball video” and in all of your drills you talk about keeping everything straight and how the ball should go straight. However, at about 11:38 in this video you throw a ball and you aren’t keeping your hand behind the ball and aren’t releasing straight like you were in the previous video or in this one up to that point. It’s as if you left out the step of how to actually throw/release to achieve the hook. Nearly every how-to video online does this. Yours, Brad and Kyle, The Art of Bowling, etc. Everyone shows the same drills to throw a straight ball and those are great drills if you want to learn how to throw the ball straight. No one shows the last step of how the release should look to achieve a hook. Keeping your hand behind the ball, thumb pointed at the pins, fingers out last get you the same results as the drills: a straight ball.
Release is greatly affected by the lower body and timing of the swing. I disagree with practicing the release from the knees. Practice release and release from the slot at the same time. Properly timed and leveraged swings make for effortless power
One thought, nothing more I find works the best with my brain....keep the elbow in....For me it makes the rest of my approach almost an after thought...maybe it is just us men 😂
Really hard to keep the elbow inside when a person is real erect. Try dropping your right shoulder and notice your hand is exactly at your ankle left foot where u want it!
Make a series of bowling for dummies. Act like you are teaching aliens from another world who have never even HEARD of bowling. From where to stand and aim to how to score the game. Rev rate, what the "pocket" is, oil patterns, even how to get your ball drilled. EVERY. SINGLE. DETAIL.

Do a drill with a towel in between your elbow and hip bone, and don’t let the towel drop. That will force your elbow to stay behind the ball.

Why would you go on one knee? This would make me it too far away from the body. Wouldnt it be better to stand on one leg in your finishing position?
100% . No step drill from finish position not only works for release but also teaches the release while your swing is in “the slot “ - proper leverage
Lou--It seems that your hand position, in your setup, is approximately at 4 or 5 o'clock, even if the inside of your elbow is tight to your ribs. Wouldn't a hand position of closer to 6 or even 7 o'clock further promote keeping the elbow "inside"? Have you ever tried that?

Release is greatly affected by the lower body and timing of the swing. I disagree with practicing the release from the knees. Practice release and release from the slot at the same time. Properly timed and leveraged swings make for effortless power
Suggestion. A few drills practicing driving past the fast food places.
One thought, nothing more I find works the best with my brain....keep the elbow in....For me it makes the rest of my approach almost an after thought...maybe it is just us men 😂
How to make a ten pin constantly…😢
I need to learn also lol
how to resurface and maintain a ball
You should probably fix your release as well.
Problem is cost at least $5 per game to practice.
The house where I bowl has 3 nights of unlimited bowling after 7 or 9 for $13 or $17 until close. Maybe yours does too.
The house where I practice is $8 for 2 hours…great deal. Also I get free games for bowling league at Bowlero.
Really hard to keep the elbow inside when a person is real erect. Try dropping your right shoulder and notice your hand is exactly at your ankle left foot where u want it!
😂
Make a series of bowling for dummies. Act like you are teaching aliens from another world who have never even HEARD of bowling. From where to stand and aim to how to score the game. Rev rate, what the "pocket" is, oil patterns, even how to get your ball drilled. EVERY. SINGLE. DETAIL.
To me.. it seems like you are still coming off the side. Not as much as before but still coming of the side
You don't have anyone bowling next to you either
