Brad has always been great but recently his ability to teach and communicate is phenomenal. Kyle too, you both seem to have really stepped into the role of coach seamlessly. You have always been about education in my eyes and im so happy to see how much you have both improved your ability to teach and really helpfully communicate these confusing ideas so well. "Stay up the back" but "get around it" etc. Without feeling it for yourself its so hard to explain good bowling technique and be able to apply it in practice without a coach present.
My second time practicing these tips after a week and a half off from league. I just went to practice and averaged 202 over 5 games. Throwing one strike ball on one lane and my only other ball on the other lane. What I learned and applied from your video of Kyle teaching an amateur was so helpful. I understand forward ball roll now and breaking the wrist and setting the ball down. That one video literally improved my average 45 pins. Please keep making great education videos. Long time fan and you are only improving.
Been riding my bike on a trainer in my basement daily for over 1 months. Going 5-6 miles in 20 minutes. My legs are reverting to when I was in my 40s. Yes, I am 71 now. Just bowled a 706 last week. Leg 🦵 day!
Great tips, as always. I don’t have really strong legs, but my dad is always telling me “use your legs, not your back.” Some shots I feel like I’m balanced at the line and my trail leg is down, other times I bend from my back (unintentionally) and I pull the shot. Slow work in progress.
I'm in a wheelchair. So, I do not have a choice but to generate power with my arms. The key for me is to stay smooth with my armswing right up to the time my thumb starts to come out of the ball. This is where I try to hit the ball hard with my follow thru so that I can gain that couple extra revs and maybe half a mph ball speed.
There are times, though, when it is best to have a smoother release and not hit up on the ball at the release.
However, with that said, I can definitely tell when I try to generate power too soon on my down swing. My ball speed actually slows down. My thumb does not release from the ball correctly. And 9 times out of 10, I will miss my mark left by 3 to 5 boards.
This video helps a lot on insight on that because I struggle with ball speed and don’t really push of a whole lot when I get to the power step
I love how norm and brian voss use the trail leg
Thank you for the great tutorial videos, as usual!
This helped me correct a misconception with the approach. Many intermediate players have the leaky trail leg. 4:10
I always thought that was a good thing to have because of how commonly I saw it. I’m glad this video was able to correct that misconception.
I generally tend to keep my leg straighter than your average intermediate bowler and always thought that was a leak in my game. I’m glad to hear it’s quite the opposite and I hope to keep improving on it to generate more power and hook. Thanks again guys!
Sas😮
Would like to hear what these guys think about string pin bowling. 😢
I definitely appreciate all these videos because half of them I didn’t even realize I was doing wrong til I seen them and they have helped me out tremendously. I’m 29 and got my first 600 series in league in April and I’ve been practicing a lot and I’m seeing myself slowly starting to get a lot better, especially with usually only able to practice one day a week before league because of work. I definitely appreciate the videos so much and I hope after my vacation this month I hope I’ll be able to join the membership not too long after!
Thank You. great “food” for thought on how to keep hips square and using the legs.
Love your videos. I practiced this in the week and then tried it out in league last night and got my best ever series score: 214, 236, 185. Was gutted I choked on the third game as I've never gotten three 200+ games in league, but this has definitely helped me take a step (pun intended) in the right direction. Thanks guys!
This is so helpful. Every point in the video made me feel like the entire video is made for me
Can you guys do a video about mindset? I have trouble trying to keep my mind on bowling when ever I’m in a slump and do worse, something like “how to recover on a bad frame” or “what to think about between frames”
Thank you so much, im 16 and I’ve just started to average 602 series and have been following all your tips and coaching for a bit now and has helped so much
Bowl in a house with above ground ball returns. I’m so conscious about it that it has helped in newer houses keeping my trail leg back.
I used to muscle the ball, I get excellent rotation but 12 to 13 mph. Now slide properly and its now 17 to 18mph, less ball movement but much better carry
Love the content and had an additional question: Given the heat and humidity on this side of the country, it's common for some approaches to be "Stickier" than others (I,e, after it rains). Are there any tips or recommendations for sustaining power through one's legs while bowling on approaches where sliding is difficult?
Excellent advice as always y’all. Hope you’re doing well.
Keeping your trail leg around 7 oclock keeps your knee healthy
When you slide what part of your foot do you use? are you more flush using your entire foot,are you putting more pressure on the front part of your foot?
First it was nice seeing you at the open kyle. Second what should someone do if they have the opposite problem my trail leg doesn't get behind my slide leg?
would love to see u guys do a vid with kevin mccune about how he generates all his power
Love the tips. Off to the lanes to practice for the pro am.
Good to know about the power slide. Gives me something to work on. Thanks guys. Keep up the great work.
Truly appreciate these videos. It gives me a direction on what needs to be worked on when I have the opportunity to practice.
Cool video talk tech bowling Brad and Kyle
tips on staying behind the ball? i find that i have a nice cupped hand around my ball in the back swing but then when i come forward that i end up more ontop of the ball which robs me a ton on revs
Super helpful. Love you guys. The vid with Kyle and the amateur has been so helpful. Love vids like this.
Some great tips that I need to work on for sure. I've never been able to slide much and my balance is usually not great. But it all kinda makes sense now of why I don't because I've always just kinda planted and never really pushed off with the power step. Good stuff to work on for sure.
Thank you... Can we get some instructions for older folks that aren't flexible..
Thanks guys more hook videos please ❤
You guys always talk about the 4 or 5 step approach but I find myself doing 3 or else I hit the foul line. So with taking 3 big step approaches should my ball speed be faster or slower?
Is there anything bowlers do with the upper body that causes the trail leg to wrap around more?
Watch Chris Barnes's slide step. He pushes off like a pitcher off a mound, he has a huge slide.
This was a great video. I'm currently going to the gym and working on leg strength. This explains the power step perfectly and it's something that I wanna start working on. Thank you ❤️
Good remember never do heavy legs day b4 you bowl your legs will be exhausted
This is a great video
I have been doing this, but my left knee is just killing me after the second night of bowling. This is key advice here!
I have bad knees and wear knee braces so i have to be careful and feel like i cant bend or put alot of pressure on them
I never had a "slide" and I don't feel comfortable trying to slide now. I kind of stomp or have a "step into finish". Is this a very bad thing if I need to work on my ball speed? I did buy one of those shoe covers that help you slide but when I tried it I had no control of my shot so I stopped trying it. Is not having a slide such a bad thing? Are there any pros who "stomp" or step into the approach like I do? Please make a video on this if you can.
I’ll be showing my age with this comment, but the best example of lower body power and positioning I can think of is Jason Couch. Loving him or hating him aside... back in the day Couch’s leg work and hip positioning was picture perfect for creating power.
Thanks for the content…Long time subscriber. Bowling Nationals in Reno in a couple weeks. I’m a 210 avg house bowler. I have an Absolute, Exotic Gem, Gem..Can only afford one more ball before tournament. Was thinking IQ Ruby until Summit came out…Any suggestions of what ball to get that would complement what I have? Single right hand bowler
You guys are just awesome
Do i need a good shoe?? Cos it ‘slides’ better?
I always feel like I fall off my approach/release when my slide sticks.
Thank you for showing me how to create enough power one handed to foul 8:03 haha good video for real though
The more i look at your videos, the more i feel my form is terrible 😅😂. And i dont know where to start the changes hahaha
I have a question not necessarily asking Brad and Kyle but just asking the comment section, if another bowler came around like Pete Weber without the drugs and controversy but a trash talking star came around, would it benefit the game because more people would watch or would it hurt it because of how the other pros and even just enthusiasts would react to that person, or any other outcomes
OVER THE LINE!!!
Mark it Zero
Idk if it’s luck or what but I stumbled into this exact issue in my practice this past week, and I’ve been struggling conquering it on my own. Thanks for posting this, and especially rn. I’m gonna have to try working these tips in my next practice. I have a feeling it’s gonna have a secondary effect of helping me get through my release slot better, too. Cheers!
I’m an old fart but I’m gonna practice this this weekend
Thanks boys
Damn LMNT get's around! Does it actually taste any good? Like for reals? I've been trying different stuff out, some is straight nasty! So far best is Dr Berg Electrolyte Powder Tangerine. Then again I tend to stay away from the high salt mixes.
We love the product and have used it hundreds of times. But everyone has different taste buds!
I can't do no trail leg. I don't know how people do that. I'd be more off balance if I did that. My leg goes up in the air behind me. 😊
how does this translate to a person who can't get the slide timing right and is more of a planter?
44 seconds
research Sodium
They throw it 2hands😂
Camera shake? 😂
Ever thought of being grateful for free content and excellent tips?
A lot salt I staying away
I use LMNT while cycling. It's salty.
너 파울이야
I'm kinda losing interest because they treat bowlers like we're to simple to figure out different oil patterns. You don't take care of the top down or the bottom up you take care of all real bowlers. The hope is fading that this sport will wise up. I'm moving to golf more and more thanks for all these "rules" because the sport is bleeding out terribly. I can play a round of golf with my friends for 3x cheaper then it is to get a lane ATM any bowling ally. The overcharging for lanes is killing the game.
Both shots were fouls - LOL!!
How does salt (electrolytes) help keep hydrated? It makes you more thirsty and is bad for you, like kidney stones.
Sodium is a critical electrolyte that, along with potassium and chloride, helps to deliver water to your body's cells. That means a diet that's too low in sodium can actually increase your risk of dehydration.
