How to get rid of the 10 pin or 7 pin. When your a high power player like me you don’t leave to many 10 or 7′s. When you leave a 10 pin there are a few ways to get rid of it, but there are 2 kinds of ten pins, a weak and a ringing. A weak ten pin is when the 6 pin goes around the ten and a weak is where the 6 pin laying in the gutter next the the ten pin.
When you leave a weak ten pin your ball is hitting to weak or not driving, now you want to slow your ball speed down or change to a higher reactive ball, by doing this your ball will hit harder and drive through the pins.
When leaving a ringing ten pin your ball is hitting too late in the pocket or your angle to the pocket is too great, so now you want to move your line (where your playing) so your ball hooks a little earlier or so your ball gets a lower angle to the pocket.
The 7 pin is caused by your ball hitting too light in the pocket or hitting really heavy in the pocket. when leaving the weak 7 you want to move so your ball so it will hit or roll harder into the pocket, but if you leave the solid 7 you should speed up your ball or move your line so you have some more oil.
For a lefty just do the opposite .
The New Power from Lane #1, the Dynamo. This ball is another monster from lane #1 this ball can be hooked or thrown straight very easley.
In the Video im throwing my first Cobalt bomb pearl this ball is set up for a ton of length, watch as you can is the great carrie.
In this video in bowling with the track Tantrum, This ball is a mid to light oil ball.
In this video I’m bowling with 3 of lane #1 best,
The Agent Orange is a great ball it has a 500 grit surface with a double core, this ball is a monster.
The Cobalt Bomb Pearl is my favorite ball from lane #1, with ball has a strong back end with great hitting power.
The Chain-Saw has the most backend of any lane #1 balls, if you need lenght i sugest getting this ball.
When drilling a ball you want to know your pin like how long is your pin. with a pin placement you wanna place the pin where the ball with give you the best feel, but you wanna check out the specs of the ball,
for example i buy a Lane 1 cobalt bomb pearl, with a 1.5 inch pin, i drilled the pin in between the finger because i know that gives me the most control but buy putting the pin there it took alot of hook off the ball and gave it backend, i bought another coblat and drilled it under my ring finger and that gave me alot more hook over all.
So when you drill a ball try to drill it so you get a good feel on the ball, for you beginers out there.
In videos coming soon i will be throwing two new cobalt bombs, 15lbs each, with different pins placements and using the same pins. I will be showing the difference in pin placements on a bowling balls.
If you wanna see me throw a bowling ball that you wanna buy, just leave a comment and ill try to make a video of it so you can see it before you get it. Thanks
Sanding a bowling ball gives any ball more hook. You can sand any bowling ball you want to in order to gain more hook.
Sanding a particle bowling ball will have less length and will have a stronger, or more hook to it.
Sanding a reactive bowling ball will just increase the hook potential.
Knowing Your Rev rate.
If you have a low rev rate you will have less power but your ball will read the lane better. When the lanes become dry low rev rate makes it easy to bowl because your ball wont read the front part of the lane as early. A lower rev rate also will help you bowl more games.
If you have a high rev rate you will have a power full strike ball. With a high rev rate your ball will read the lane faster, but when the lanes are oily the ball will still read the lanes early but the result will be a strong back end reaction. When the lanes become dry you better hope you got a less aggressive bowling ball with you, if you don’t your going to have to start throwing the ball harder.
Here are some techniques for high and low rev rates.
IF you have a lower rev rate go out and get a high reactive bowling ball and drill the ball then go long with a strong back end. That means if you throw your ball straight you will love the pin carry you will have, but if you have a low rev rate and you like to hook it then it will have a stronger back end. When the lanes become dry just keep moving left if your a righty.
IF you have a high rev rate go out a get a heavy rolling ball, what a heavy rolling ball if a lower reactive ball the will drive through the pins. When the lanes are oily go straighter, but when the lanes get really dry then you might have some problem. When the lanes are dry and your standing as far as you can to the left, you should put LOFT on your ball. Loft is where you throw the ball farther down the lane, what loft does to your ball is it makes it go longer. When the ball is in the air it can’t hook and it can’t read the lane too early. If you still get too much hook and you can’t throw your ball any harder you have to go to the last thing to do. What you have to do is stand on negative 5 board or so in that area. Then when your standing in that area your foot should be almost sliding into the lane dividers. Then you will have to loft your ball over the gutter.
This is a video of my friend Nick Holm bowling in league at Little Falls Bowling Center.
On this The Lanes are slick. Nick is a lefty and is a pretty good bowler as well. Even with Nicks extremely small rev rate compared to mine, he makes up for it with his consistency.
In this video Nick uses three different Balls From Colombia 300.
I went out and bought the lane #1 Dirty Bomb. The Dirty Bomb, how can i say this, its A BOMB when it hits. The Dirty bomb is the best ball i ever thrown in my life. The Bomb just never seems to let up, it just keeps on hitting hard.
My Favorite part about this Ball is that it hooks, and then it can go straight. Made for Heavy oil lanes this is my ideal ball for any lane condition.
On this film I’m bowling on wood lanes with heavy oil, and carry down. Watch for the Great explosion and the awesome carry.
I Rate this ball 95 out 0f 100 *****
Me bowling in little falls, MN. These are wood lanes that are hard to master and tend to have very different lane conditions from one week to another. it’s hard to avg. over 200 her but i avg a 213.
The first ball i throw is the Track Avenger.
The second ball i throw is the Brunswick Zone Classic. the Zone classic is one of my favorite balls. it’s very ease to rev up and i love to throw this ball hard and fast. It’s a very consistent bowling ball.
The Third ball i thrown is the Hammer Black widow Pearl. The Pearl is very clean threw the front of the lane and has a strong backend.
I Rate the Track Avenger, 86 out 0f 100
I Rate the Brunswick Zone Classic 89 out of 100
and the Hammer Black widow Pearl 91 out of 100
I’m Henry Turtwin 6’1″ 180 lbs. I throw the ball between 18-20 MPH. I also have around 400 RPMS on the ball.
I’m bowling with the Storm Charge in the Beacon Bowl in Naples, FL.
The Charge is 16lbs. Has a 4″ pin and is drilled to go long and have a strong backend reaction. The Charge is a very controllable, and has a strong backend. The Charge is made for light to mid oily lane conditions.
I Rate this ball 90 out of 100
I’m bowling on carry down after league bowling.
This is Henry’s new website and blog.
Henry is supposed to go to the pier today but it looks kind of windy and a little cooler. Emil will probably sleep in late anyway so I guess we can find other things to do.
