wow u guys are fast, but u play 2handed style? with one hand i can get it very fast, but with 2 hand then theres a problem...
maybe i have too much rev that takes away the speed...
not sure :S
edit: BTW when is the match 9?

It's about timing and balance.. technique.. and practice!

I can pretty easily throw over 30km/hr two-handed if I have to, I'd just prefer not to. I put some vids under coaching forum/faq a few weeks ago, maybe go take a look.

MM how long u bin throwong two hands??? and what do u average?

My final averages at the end of 2005 were 203 and 201 in two different centres.

Currently I am on 199 and 196 after a slow start to the year.. mainly due to my final 6 months of university.. now I'm graduated I'm back well over 200 because I can focus on my game again.

I have been bowling two handed for just under two years, sanctioned high series for 3 is 787 and high game 298.

Any more questions feel free to PM me.

Cheers.
 
All those years of university, it's bound to do something to my head Stevo!

Come on, you're just jealous because I smashed you at Columbia :D You made me late for day 2 check in.. see.. I knew you were just trying to undermine me because I made day 2 and you didn't..

Bring the gloves champ ;)
 
Well the bags I was carrying into the centre on day 2 weren't mine. From memory, they were yours handbag boy. I hear Louey Voitton is having a sale, you might be interested.

I think it's time to get back on topic!

Definatly not the handbag boy...cant spell Louis Vuitton haha :p
 
U GUYS ARE SO FUNNY!!!
Timmy, I'm surprised you even know who Louis Vuitton is.....I had to ask my missus..... (",)
 
Anyhow.... Easy Tiger, i see from your video that in your release you have somewhat of a trademark "hop" just before u plant ur left foot (does it have anything to do with ur avatar? haha), sometimes i roll with 2 hands and no thumb just to experiment and can't get the same speed you do behind your shot. Wondering if you have tried to eliminate the hop, or if u have experimented just walking to the foul line, does that impede ur ball speed? also do you find that you may vary on your release point by hopping?
Cheers
Ray
Ps. that 300 will come soon!!
 
He just does it 'cause he does, I think.

Reckon he thinks he looks cool, but then again he doesn't look in the mirror very often.
 
easy tiger i couldnt find the forum/faq place, can u link the videos please?


edit: lol, me and my big eyes... found the videos, pretty good release i think pretty much the same as what i want to do... except that i like throwing the ball too far away :p

i just started with 2hands so... still lot to come.


btw, what kind of drillings u have on ur balls? do u have a thumb hole or not at all?

I don't need to look in the mirror bud, I'm cooler than you and that's all that counts :) Don't you have some floors to sweep or something??

Rayzer, Yes.. everyone loves to make fun of my trademark hop.. Porto gave me the name "skippy" the other day (you just wish you had it ;) ) it's just something that crept into my technique over time, and it doesn't affect my release consistancy at all. It allows me to be able to get my body in a position where I can get a fairly high backswing. That took a lot of work. That helps me to get power behind the shot.

Often after league I will spend some time just walking up to the foul line and letting it go, this helps to identify many things such as timing issues and so on. It may be a good place to start.

I think I am quite accurate, maybe someone else could give a better opinion on that though.

Interdicted, I do drill thumb holes in most of my gear. This allows me more options in my drilling layouts. I have some favourite layouts, but I am fortunate enough to be able to drill all my own gear at my place so I do experiment quite a bit which definately helps.

And Emmtee mate.. what have you done? Now that your missus knows that you know who/what louie vuitton is, she is going to expect it you realise.. I hope your pockets are deep!

Anyway hope that helps, happy to answer any more questions.
Timmy.
 
Cheers Timmy, good to know the inner working of a 2 handed bowler... and one that is willing to share the knowledge! But i don't think i'll be going 2 handed soon, haha no need to change the entire shot when i'm on a decent run!!
Thanks again "skippy" ;)
