This is probably going to be a pretty obvious question to most of you guys, but I need some help.
Just stepped up from plastic to a reactive ball last week, I purchased a 14 lb ebonite smashtime pearl from Tonx (thanks for the great deal) It has been drilled fingertip ( a first for me) and also has a thumb slug.
No I know the ball turns because if I bowl it with no thumb in the ball I can turn it heaps, but I want to bowl with my thumb in the ball as I can aim better.
I have used it for 10 practice games and are not having much luck in turning it.
I have tried my wrist in all sorts of different angles and tried turing it on the way through and the only thing I have really achived is a little drift from the bowled line ocassionally and a sore forearm.
I realise the forearm soreness is only the muscles get used to the new weighted movement (I used you train weights)
I have even been watching some film clips to see what others do.
I'm after some online help possibly with pictures or even some instructions from you guys.
Also while I'm asking how do I go about finding some coaching in my area (Frankston Vic) and what sort of prices should I expect to pay?
