BrunsNick is correct - the ball hardly finishes in the back end. It keeps spinning, what might look impressive, but hardly gets into a forward roll. Deflection and a drastic motion once the ball hits the dry are the result. You get very good length, though.
You can drill a ball to fit such a style, but the best way to change the ball's efficiency is to change the release as such. This ball reaction comes from a twist of the wrist to put revs on the ball - the player does not stay behind the ball and "lift" it with the fingers what would rise the track by tendency. It can also come from a wrist that breaks back during the release, so that the hand comes around the ball too much, topping it. Here, a wrist device can help, but it will not "cure" the release by itself. The player still has to focus on a straight wrist and not to turn the hand upon the ball's release. Tough thing!
A coach would IMHO be the best help, since a remedy is simple, but its implementation very tough because this spinner release will feel very natural.
