I already employ this concept and it is a good one. One thing......most bowling centers will not let anyone put anything on their lanes. In order to do this you would have to have the center's permission. Then if they would allow it, you'd get one of the end lanes so that you did not walk down the end caps.

J.R. forgot to mention to ask the house before putting tape or cones on their lanes.

No kidding! I’d get kicked out if I went out to the arrows to put down cones or anything.

@@SargeUSMC In some of J.R.'s older videos he has talked about asking the house for permission with various training exercises. I'm thinking it was just an oversight here. Like you mentioned, doing this without asking would probably get most people kicked out.

I have to imagine that most would say "no" for a litany of reasons which would include not wanting to be sued should the person fall down and injure themselves.

To be successful you need to believe you are the best there is.

My coach used post-its like little flags on the lane. Quite useful but yeah only during training sessions. The bowling alley wouldnt allow us to do it on our own.

This would be good practice for me for sure. Problem being, like some have said. Getting permission to do it. Thanks Jr.

Great advice!!!

Glad you used the golf analogy. These are the 2 sports I play the most and I will literally aim at a blade of grass at the arrows. I am going to change that now. Thank you!!!!!

thank you for the subtitles!

Thanks, this helps me a lot.

Used the area today,instead of board,shot 259 clean and 222 for 5th game. Now im getting somewhere with my new release i should have learned 45 years ago.

With all due respect, the captioning was distracting. Other than that, good info for targeting.

I am definitely trying this without putting anything down on the lane every time i bowl. I am trying to get better i 100% usually know if im not even close to 2nd arrow lol. I am really trying to move left but my rotation angle is in dire need of fixing first. Should one strive to be able to hit 90 degrees. A buddy of mine seems to have sick axis rotation.

I was taught this in 1982 by my grandfather

would love to see some drills that u could do at home to help with hand position, more revs ect, thanks for the vid sir!!!

Nice trainer

Most centers will not let you go out on the lanes for liability issues. You’ll need to make friends with, gain trust to have them let you do that. My home center will only let me do it if the center is empty, don’t want kids thinking because I can go out there and not fall that they can just walk out on the lane and not get hurt.

First rule of bowling , if you ain’t throwing em , your won’t get better ! I’m 65 years old , I’ve been bowling everyday since 2015 , knocking at least 1500 pins a day, some times many many more , that’s a lot of throws , I finally learnt how to release the ball , learnt many many things about bowling , I’m not embarrassed any more, but I still suck!!!!

The old guys at the center where I grew up put beer cans out there. Empty, of course!😂

Come to New Jersey and bowl in one of Greg Tack's tournaments. Then you'll be aiming for that blade of grass.

We did this in the 90´s with toilet rolls. If you hit the roll - take off your shoes - walk out - put the roll back - put your shoes on again, little punishment. After taking off your shoes 8-10 times it´s no fun anymore - then you be trying/concentrate way harder.

just killing

Q- what’s with the caption reader for? I understand Jr just fine? Just asking because I just got on here and thinking about joining sure do t want to see caption reader

Very good video. Just one problem......neither of the two centers in my area would allow me to put anything on the lanes (Tape, cones, whatever). I imagine that most centers anywhere won't for the average bowler. Guess you got to be a bowling celebrity/pro, but I'm not. Thanks anyway for a great video.

Does it make sense to put a couple more cones at breakpoint to practice launch angle?

Cool video talk tech bowling bowling Jr Raymond

Accurate enough

So this is an old method, but worse :P :P . The old method used pieces of tape bent at an angle. With these cones thingies, you will have to re-position them a million times, wasting valuable time. These props are only useful to show the method in a video as you did here. To actually do the practice, you need something that that not need re-positioning all the time.
