👋 been bowling since mid January this year 54 years old. I had a hard time getting consistent revs and getting my thumb out clean. I tended to pull the ball from thumb sticking. Threw no thumb a few times just out of curiosity and now I’m dedicated to the switch. 11 games over the last 2 days and getting better with each game… fingers are a bit sore though 😂
Great info. I'm a new again bowler, I was having pain in my forearm from "gripping" to hard trying to hold onto my ball. Went back to no thumb recently and oh man am i having fun! More revs for these fancy new bowling bals!
Finally , I've been looking for thumbless bowling tips and tricks, plus if I had the honour to travel from Down Under to see the clean-up crew and coach baker.
LET’S GOOOOOOOO!!! This is the info I’ve been looking for!!! I can finally stop fine tuning my technique blindly. I love this!!! Thank you! Side note: I’ve been bowling one hand, no thumb since 2004 with lots of trial and error. This is the first time I’ve seen any solid info on this style of bowling and I’m here for it. Love y’all for making this available to everyone.
I truly appreciate this info. Looking forward to applying this knowledge and getting some lab work done. Thank you again for this info and actually showing us that it’s not theoretical.
I love this, I've been a one handed thumbless bowler since 1990, I'm 60 years old and now buying 15 lb equipment to drill up, 16 lb starting to get heavy and my ball speed is dropping
its funny i went to get coached by mark baker this month. i started first 15 as a 1 hand no thumb by the end i was a 2 handed bowler. He didn't demand me to change my style but the reality is in the timing. timing as a one hander is waaaay harder to be consistent then when you are a 2 hander. now I just have to relearn accuracy.
When I first made the switch a couple years ago, I tried 2 hands first and it killed my back from getting a lot lower. Which made me switch to the no thumb one hand. You are correct though regarding consistency as it's one of my down falls if my timing is off slightly
I attempted this once, and ended up rupturing my bicep tendon. Didn’t bowl for over a year after that. What can I do to prevent that from happening again (other than bowling two fingers + thumb)?
Man, this is really fire and very well needed. Just curious Earl what layout do you have on your harsh reality/eternity pi as they look the same. I just never gotten a short pin layout for the way we throw because I was told that usually two handers don’t get the layouts too close to the pin. But we’re technically not two handers and seeing how your ball reacts makes me think that I should actually try a Layout similar.
For the exact layout, I’m not too sure what the numbers are, but hit me on ig and I could show you where the pins and CG are to show your proshop to possibly replicate it for you👍🏽
Could you make a Comment if you should change the surface of an Urethane Ball? Because when I see the pros I dont really think that there Ball reads early.
I’m a big guy 6’6” 290, and no matter how much I try to drift left with crossover etc, I always slide right just like big guy in this video. Any advice on correcting? Or just learn to play it?
Got a bunch of different rocks for different lane conditions and alleys, as of right now..the rotation is my eternity pi for the fresh oil, vebo for transition, lightning blackout for burnt. When it’s sports pattern, there’s a different lineup 🫡
Love the content Earl and Rich! Great informational video for me as a one hand no thumb bowler. Keep up the great work fellas! Shout out to Blake in the background. Ok I see you son lol
1 hand no thumb crew where you at?! 🧹🧹🧹
sup homie! Nice video!
In the house! 🎳

Glad to hear you liked it. Hopefully, we can fill that void of knowledge that is out there by making a few more of these
I truly appreciate this info. Looking forward to applying this knowledge and getting some lab work done. Thank you again for this info and actually showing us that it’s not theoretical.
The "big balls" usually don't suit our type of throw. There's a lot of stuff from even before the '90s that works
Awesome Video! Shout out ALL my NO THUMB bowlers!! 🤘🏻😈🤘🏻
Thanks. I appreciate this being a one-handed, no thumb bowler. This is my go-to for all my tools and insights
Glad it was helpful!
Changing to no thumb/one hand right now at age 66. Should've done this years ago.
Let's go thanks for this info very little 1 handed no thumb vids out there
Glad to help
We’re athletes god damnit 😤🗣️

Appreciate it!

Hey clean up crew, earl i would love more videos about this.
We need more videos like this, not enough online.
Much BLESSING CREW😤🙏🤘

This is definitely helpful just trying to get more control when bowling with no thumb
Love this video. There are a few tips I will be trying next time I bowl. Thanks for the love to us no thumb one hand bowlers. Would love to see more 😊
You are so welcome! We will be making more no thumb content for sure. Myself (Pistol Pete) and Earl are both no thumb bowlers
@@TheCleanUpCrew300 awesome, looking forward to more future content. Keep up the great work 👍
Ishould make video in send it to you for advice iuse this style too for around 6 years now iuse 16 and my speed is 29-28.5
Great video. This helps even you don’t bowl one handed no thumb
Glad it was helpful!

I thought I was the used my pinky and ring finger only love to see it
That tip about athlete mentality is golden.
Thank you for this very informative video! Keep them coming!!❤❤❤
Started bowling no thumb in the mid 1990s. Back at it after a 20+ year break.
Can you use a lighter ball for a higher back swing, higher Rev rate and speed?
Yes, physics tells us yes 😂
I’m a big guy 6’6” 290, and no matter how much I try to drift left with crossover etc, I always slide right just like big guy in this video. Any advice on correcting? Or just learn to play it?
Just starting to make the switch from thumb to no thumb. This is very helpful. Thanks 😊
Glad it helped!
We HERE BABY!!!!
Dropping Gems 💎
Whats in earls arsenal?
Got a bunch of different rocks for different lane conditions and alleys, as of right now..the rotation is my eternity pi for the fresh oil, vebo for transition, lightning blackout for burnt. When it’s sports pattern, there’s a different lineup 🫡
I always think it’s funny when someone strikes and they look like their dog died. lol
I’m here from Dallas Texas
Love the content Earl and Rich! Great informational video for me as a one hand no thumb bowler.
Keep up the great work fellas! Shout out to Blake in the background. Ok I see you son lol
