I can't wait to go practice this! Thanks for the tips and guidance!
Absolutely. Let us know how it goes.
Good stuff guys! Nice to hear other peoples thoughts and their reasons why of spare picking. Thanks it's given me a couple of ideas that may help improve my game. Thanks again.
Thanks again for watching. Glad we could provide some extra ways to experiment with.
Great tips to help you improve your spare game!
Thank you, and thanks for watching.
good info. I still struggle being consistent throwing it straight. Gonna try the suitcase grip. thanks
Remember to release the fingers, don't lift. Do that and you should find some success. Thanks for watching.
Great info. Thanks so much!
I do the exact same thing to pick up my 10 pins! Stand on 30 & aim between 3rd and 4th arrow. In addition to the ball return getting in the way, I also find it less stressful than going completely across the lane (ex: standing on 35 or 40 and aiming at 4th arrow). I have some depth perception issues, and the 4th arrow always looks like it's a mile away from me, so I have difficulty hitting it accurately. I also use the 3rd arrow for my left side spares.
Thanks for watching, and for sharing.
Out of indignance and my best bowling buddy moving, I started to shoot a backup ball at my spares. Even shooting straight at my 10 pins im maybe a 40% spare conversion rate
A backup can work just fine. Just need practice for consistency, and a strategy for targeting and moves based on what the spare is. Keep at it. Thanks for watching.
What do you recommend for the wrist brace using bowler? Should they remove the support because it won't allow them to roll a straight ball?
Also, you speak of the benefit of the fingers and thumbs exiting simultaneously. This happens automatically with a conventional grip, but not with a fingertip one. Should a spare ball therefore be drilled with a conventional grip
to ensure that fingers and thumb exit quickly and together?
frip
Sorry, I missed the last part of your question. It is easier to throw a conventional grip ball straight, but may be harder to change grips back and forth. So that part is personal preference.
@@baldbrothersbowling Thank you...what about the removing the wrist brace for spares question? On one hand, I find that doing so increases my ball speed by 2-3mph without intentionally trying to do so, which could negatively affect my timing. But on the other hand, even with an adjustable support dialed
all the way down to 0 cup and 0 cocked wrist, just wearing something that doesn't allow your wrist to break backward, can cause even a plastic ball to hook.
@@joehoenig7596 for some reason, my other reply didn't post. When I coach any kids who wear a brace, I do have them remove it for spares. It is easier to relax the wrist and deaden the hook. Increased speed also helps, but regarding timing, just do a lot of practice at spares and you can get your timing to match up closely to your first ball.
@@baldbrothersbowling thank you
Wearing useless k tape...
I generally have a 2nd piece wrapped around the wrist, but forgot to add it. I got distracted setting up the cameras. The 1 piece alone isn't doing much, but both actually have a HUGE impact for my arthritis in my wrist.
