Please. Never stop this. I absolutely love this and as a no thumb one bowler it’s rare to find others that bowl like I do. To see that a no thumb bowler can be coached successfully is amazing. Absolutely love this. Looking forward to seeing more.

I just started to watch your videos, and share them with other people, only people want to do better they are already 190 -200+bowlers, I am 70 years old. I'm bored with seniors and got some good seniors out there. I'm just getting my arsenal together now that I'm learning to throw each bowling ball, I meant to say each peach bowling ball great content. Keep it up man. Thanks again. I'm going to get better. I got the equipment now and I got to get my steps together my release together where to put the ball down on the lane on my mark when to change bowling balls and all that other good stuff. Thanks again man. Let me know you got this text. I appreciate it. Take care.

We need more coaches like Mark Baker, with lanes and great training.

Gotta say we agree, but luckily he’s able to be reached from anywhere with his virtual lessons and such. Markbakerbowling.com you can check it all out

Mark is my coach and he is beyond amazing. I always have in my head “What would Mark say” and it calms me down and puts me in the best bowling mindset of me during tournaments. His video series is one you cannot miss! Go see Mark!!!

Couldn't agree more!

Tang just needs the Magic GEM and everything just magically falls in place :)

Everyone who wants to be coached by mark needs to get his book “the game changer” it’s like 13 dollars for an Ebook. I’m about halfway through and just bowled a 226 yesterday and used his critics. I will vouch for this book my whole life. Next best thing to being there next to him

anyway I can get picture of those posters, Baker Box?

Thank you for your efforts as I stumbled upon this. I have Mark’s original dvd and book I really enjoyed this…

Its so good to hear affirmation in this video for the things that I work on weekly with my game and focus, also for my Teammate (Wife).

So informative, I actually may go practice now!! Love it ❤

I remember when Mark Baker was a professional bowler back in 1986 when he used to face Marshal Holman of the Firestone Tournament Of Champions when his right foot got stuck in the line & it was actually a strike & the PBA ruled him out “foul” at the time of his release swing. But he’s a real good bowler & now he coaches professional bowlers like Darren Tang, only if my chance to meet Mark in person because I’m an amateur bowler & bowl with the PBA/PWBA professional bowlers. The same year that Walter Ray Williams Jr. became the PBA player of the year back in 1986. And I watch Mark Baker on TV since I was 11 years old.

This is fantastic. my fav new series. 🔥

if you want to be better. stop bowling on house shot. all you'll learn from that is bad habits

I can watch Darren T bowl all day long. SO fluid! At this point, I believe that his biggest flaw has little to do with his physical game, and has everything to do with getting too deep into his own head.

Mark baker is definitely the goat. I’ve been to that facility 3 times and each time I left a better bowler.

Starts at 13:05. I have the pleasure of watching and bowling with Lamaki Welch a few nights a week in league. They are not exaggerating his rev rate on this video. After he torches the right side of lane He can switch to a back up ball with the same speed and revs and ripped off a 280 like that against me. He is also the only player I've seen in person or on TV where his ball flies off the pin deck before the pins.

Very well done video - Definitely need a coach

I loved this video. If I was to try and look at a pba bowler with similar style I'm not sure who I would have as I am a 2 handed bowler but I throw with my thumb in the ball (as i prefer it) however my back swing feels very short

Thank you guys for this. I've been told I'm pretty smooth by everyone I've bowled with and/or against, but I've never been evaluated by a coach. That is my goal this year, and this video is proof of that. Be as blunt with me as you want Mark. I coach all my teammates, no one teaches me. They critique, not coach

That's a great idea. Talking with a coach is a great way to get an educated set of eyes on you. One lesson could change your game forever if it fixes a flaw you did not realize you had. We highly recommend a lesson with Mark Baker if you have the chance.

For amateurs, how do you get lower to the release? I noticed the pros get their ball within inches of the file line and work on a little bigger backswing.

Would really love to get a coaching session like this. With some caveats as the one thing people see first in my game is I throw off the wrong foot. That's kind of my identity! Would love to see what things I can change other than that to increase my average. At about a 200 avg even with multiple 300s.

I would say bowling is 95% mental and 5% physical. If you don't have your mental game perfected everything fails in bowling. It doesn't matter how good physically you are the mental is the key. I'd also add that the majority of the bowlers I see have no control, they are focused on one thing throwing it as fast as they can and that doesn't work well over time.

@TheCleanUpCrew300

70 perfect lower body effort, only >30 lower body so that it’s more of a swing than a throw. Sliding into your shot and just letting your arm swing vs pulling the ball back and throwing it with your shoulders is what makes that possible
