Here goes a quick video tip from your Prez using the Inertia.
http://media.putfile.com/Inertia-36Watching the vid, my first shot playing 12 at the arrows to 7 board at the breakpoint causes the ball to go high and leave a 3-6-10. I made a 3 and 2 adjustment, 3 with my feet and 2 with my target to create a different trajectory to the pocket. The second shot now crosses the arrows at 14 board to about 8 board at the breakpoint and this allows me to hit the pocket.
Moral of the story is to "trust" your leaves and make parallel moves to adjust to them. Do not stay there and fight it! I watch bowlers do this all the time. Then I hear too many bowlers say that they have to throw it harder...well, you can do this but not recommended because throwing harder can cause inaccuracy due to additional muscle effort whereas making a slight move with our feet and target will allow us to throw the ball with more of our natural "A" game feel.
If we happen to also throw "too" hard, it can shoot past the breakpoint and that won't work either. Being able to throw your "normal" shot is crucial in repetition and that's what this game is about.

This next vid is for Machine 101
..lol....YES, this "oldie" still has a little game left even with my minimal revs. It's understanding how to create proportinate amounts of skid,hook and roll that create the good driving power. If any of you guys ever get to watch Earl Anthony on ESPN classics, tape it and watch what he does with about 12 revs at the pins....he's definitely one of the best (if not the best) who created great power at the pin deck. If memory serves me right, in one of his books, he called this getting the ball to hit the pins at its "exploding point".
