Just wondering how many of you use these training aides from here:

15# Kettlebell. Much cheaper (1/3 the cost) and has helped me out.

How do you use the kettlebell to train? I have a couple at home. 20 lbs though.

Essentially the kettlebell is the ball. I usually will do a one step with the swing, try to keep low and keep it as close to the ankle during the follow though. It will give immediate feedback on free swing and keeping your hand under the ball. It may work for some, may not for others.
My average is up and stamina is better. Ball speed more consistent as well.

My son's coach uses a variety of these tools mainly to work on tempo as my son uses way too much muscle in his swing. It was an eye opener for him when he pulled down at the top of the swing and the pin hit him on top of the hand. Coached chuckled a bit in that his coach couldn't get my son to feel that he was pulling down too hard until that little drill. Price seems a little expensive for personal use, but I do believe they are valuable tools.

To each their own I guess

The issue I see is placing the weight in the ends of the finger tips and the pulling created on the tendents...no clue on any long term effect

They are a pain in the you know what. We have an individual that has one hear and you have to give him a 6ft clear zone or he will knock you out with it. Imagine a dozen people swinging them in a center with limited space. Have to go to front counter and get your yoga mat and all line up on the approach to prevent spectators from getting hurt.

Haha, the visual of this cracks me up.

I use my bowling ball to help me get lose for league. It fits my hand great and is the exact same weight ball I use for bowling.... radical!

Amazing, now who would have thought to do that? You should patent that idea. And you don't even have to carry anything extra around with you! ;D

In today's world of bowling it would have to be a "specialty" ball that is just for warming up. It will have a special asymmetric core great for use by "todays" bowlers on "today's" tough warm up routines. It will be another seperate ball to help complete your bowling arsenal.

Just think of the "accessories" you could sell.
Maybe a special bag to carry it in.
A cleaner designed specifically for a warm-up ball.
And a polish...
Oooo, ooo, and a special glove.
Of course it would have to be available in multiple color options, and there would be folks who would need to "collect the entire set!".

Exactly. I say go with it. Its pure gold.
