Learn How to Hook The Bowling Ball Properly - The Foundation!

Спорт

🤔 So you have been trying to learn how to properly hook the bowling ball but you still have not been able to figure it out?
Today I am going to share with you How to Properly Hook The Bowling Ball and how you can start doing it as soon as today.💪
This is what I will do:
1. I will show you the 5 foundational Tips on everything you need to know to properly hook the bowling ball.
2. I will show you the best drill you can start practicing today.
3. At the end, I will give you a game plan you can also start implementing today!
First things first, I want to clear out the air and tell you that there is NOT a perfect way to hook the bowling ball. Why? Because you’re never going to use the exact same release and get the same results on different oil patterns, let alone different bowling lanes.
However, if you want to take bowling seriously and want to become a great bowler in most oil patterns you MUST have a great foundation with your release.
👉This is how you start:
0:00 Intro
1:55 #1: Inside OR Behind The Ball
2:58 #2: Your Hand Underneath the Ball
4:24 #3: Hook The Ball With Your Fingers
5:08 #4: Check Your Follow Through & Hand Position
6:12 #5: Bend Your Elbow Slightly
7:00 Putting it all into practice, let’s go!
8:00 “Your Game Plan” IMPORTANT!

    I reviewed this video. Specificall Tip #3. I want to thank you for this so much. Why? I bowled a 247 in my league last night. I have been bowling unkowingly using my whole hand for the last 5 years. Suddenly, my thumb fit perfectley in my bowling ball and my revolutions just went sky high. Also, I could control my Axis Tilt to match the lane oil pattern. Considering all the other videos I have watched, your video, so far, is the only one I have viewed that emphazied Tip #3. My gut tells me that you are a very good bowler yourself and a very good person. Thank you so much for making this video. You may indeed be a genius. As it is said "You Can't Prohibit Genius"

    When you say your thumb fit perfectly what was the before feel to the after feel? Meaning was it a loose fit before to make you squeeze and then the thumb was tighter so you didn’t have to squeeze or was it extremely tight before and then became loose. Just honestly asking is all. I love my thumb to be extremely snug so I can totally relax my thumb that’s just me tho

    Squeezing the ball too hard with thumb because I was not getting my fingers in first then the thumb. I then placed one piece of tape in my thumb put my finger tips into the holes at the first crease and slid my thumb in next. I'm an ex semi fingertip bowler so I was ignoring the span of the ball and digging my fingers in too deep which caused me to over squeeze my bowling ball because I was ignoring the span created by the fingertip drilling.

    I followed your 5 tips and in my second game I got 5 strikes and 2 spares. The first game I got one spare learning the technique. Once I settled down and just rolled it easily with the hooking technique on the right side of the lane, The ball was hooking nicely for the second game. Thank you. I just bowl maybe 5 times a year and could never hook the ball. I watched your video a couple of times.

    Great video man. I recently started bowling over the past month on a league with my friends, and have been using the 2-finger, 2 hand method since that is how my friends have been throwing, and taught me to do so too. It's working ok, but before I get too far along, I wanted to give the conventional single hand a try with the thumb. I had a ball drilled today, and realized that I absolutely cannot keep my hand behind the ball to save my life. I was really caught off guard realizing how weak my wrist is. I lift at the gym 3 days a week, and thought I had enough strength, but boy was I wrong. I'll definitely be doing the exercises you showed here. Thanks for the video.
