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, a basic hook release is a 45º throughout. Does this mean we no longer have to rotate the wrist during the release? Will maintaining this angle put the desired hook on the ball?
I am going to retrain my muscle memory as i think i tend to put more of a topspin on the ball, thus loosing hook, and hitting power. Some nights i have hook, others nothing. This could be caused from me doing my original release, and if my timing is out, can be varied with my axis tilt.
Just want opinions before i retrain my muscle memory for my release.....
Thanks
Darryl Gore
