Hi all, Can anyone recommend a good coach, preferably with drilling expertise, to help a ex 200 avg bowler, who is now lucky to bowl 100. A lot of bad habbits, some of which I think are from a poorly drilled ball. Confidence is shot. A lot to fix Someone with patience and will be...

Ok, what gives, reasonable flush pocket hits, slightly high on the head pin, but leave the 5,7,10. How the F@#$%k does that happen? Is it because my ball is a flip, and it flipped in on too much of an angle? Thanks Daz

Hi Belmo, You dont know me, but I have just finished watching your 1/4 final match up in the world cup in Singapore. I was very impressed with the way you conducted yourself, especially having the 300 bowled against you, and then leaving that split in the 10th of the second game. You took it...

Hi, I have returned to the bowling scene for about a year now, and are having release problems, working them out slowly. I learnt 10 years ago, and was taught to start out behind the ball, and finish in the hand shake position. Upon reading a website have found that in this day and age...

Hi Androo, I have a Savage Flip, and recall you posting somewhere that yours was up for sale... as a bit of a jest - a bad night maybe. Anyway, i was just wondering if you had tried to alter the surface any. I read in an American newsgroup, someone was having troubles with theres, no carry...

Hi, Just wondering if anyone uses this product, what they thought, and where I can get some. Thanks Darryl Gore

Hi, I have really inconsistant broken wrist problems. One day i bowl fine, high 180's then another i have broken wrist problems - struggle for a 145. I feel my wrist twisting during the backswing, i do nothing new to my normal routine, but the realease and feel just pack up on me. I have...

Ok, Here goes... :-) I am a 6 foot 5 inch tall bowler, who has slowly started to improve my game, from last weeks league i started getting lower with my approach and had good balance at the line, when I was more upright I tended to have to step to the side after my delivery. Anyway, this...

Hi, I am a 3d computer animater and architectural designer. I can take Architects AutoCAD files or floor plans / blueprints and "build" them into a 3d model. My website has some examples. http://www.users.bigpond.net.au/darryl-gore/ Thank you Darryl Gore

Hi all, Just wondering, if most bowlers use the new fangled equipment that track flares, would this result in less carrydown. Isn't the theory of track flare is that a new surface of the ball touches on each rotation. Therefore when the ball reaches the dry backend, it would be dry ball so...

Hi all, This could go in the links forum as well but thought it was more of a coaching thing. Anyway, here is a link to a UK website, that has the Ritger bowling drills, drills which help with balance, follow through, technique etc... I have been doing them for 2 weeks now, and have...

Hi All, I have lifters in my ball, and was wondering...... if I am getting lift / leverage, should i hear an popping sound as my fingers lift? Thanks Darryl

Hi All, When bowling should your thumb fit tight in the ball so you just relax your hand, or should you squeeze slightly with the base of your thumb (near the palm)? I have read lots on the net, and are undecided as to what should be done. I recently bought a new ball, and when drilling...

Hi all, Mine would be back in NZ about 12 years ago, I was bowling league, and both my oponent and I went strike for strike for 8 frames, then I left a solid 10, he struck,, and then ended his streak. Cant remember what our final scores were, but the rest of the league, stopped bowling, and...

Hi all, I have entered in the Treasure Island triple X comp (AMF), and was just curious as to the finals in each centre. Are the centres going to be given a condition to put down?, or are each centre just going to put down there 'house' condition. Thanks in advance Darryl Gore

Hi All, here is an excel scoring sheet, with automatic scoring Darryl Gore

Hi All, After reading the posts on the most 300 games per centre, i got to thinking, what centres, especially here in Qld, are considered to be the hardest or easiest? I have only recently started back bowling again, after about 10 years, and bowl at Kedron, and have heard some derogortory...

Hi all, My friend has got a ball, and is really inconsistant with his delivery, we have sussed out a strike line, and when he hits this target, all is ok. He however bowls very slow, and leaves a lot of 7 and 10 pins wobbling, at a rough count, from go to wo, his shot is about 3 seconds long...

Hi, My friend has taken up bowling and loves it, he even joined a league, now he is looking at getting a ball, I thought here would be a good place to start. He bowls slow-medium paced, with slow revs as well, would initially be using standard grip, before heading to fingertip. He is...

How snug should the thumb hole be? I have heard that you should be able to pick the ball up by the thumb only... I know it is best to drill slightly bigger, and then pack with tape as thumb shrinks and take tape out as swells. Should you be able to turn your thumb in the hole, feeling...

:?: Hi all, Just a few questions / queries. :?: I have been out of bowling for 10 years, and are currently in the process of getting my ball over from NZ. My queries are.... :P Will my old ball still do the trick? :shock: has lane oil conditions, pin actions, etc... changed in the...
