i've tried the soaking method in hot water n dishwasher added, but it wasn't so effective for me as throwing the ball into the oven. u need to control the heat n timing, but it's faster n all the oil just pours out! not sure how good this is internally on the ball, so i would still recommend the hot water soak.

i think no problem if u just put in and take out
if too long the ball will go out of shape, i seen b4 the ball become egg shape lol

hoho, didnt know we had a bowling thread. i've read bout that ball baking method, but never tried it cause i dont use a reactive ball.

@aiman
for spinner, the basic technique goes something like this, from what the shop fella told me. when you swing backwards, keep your thumb in a 3oclock position, and when you release, your thumb must be at 12oclock. and of course, make sure you swing straight tongue.gif

other than that, you can improvise on it as required. i generally keep my thumb at 5oclock on backswing, and anticlockwise to 7oclock on release, to generate revs.

forgot to add, all this is based on using your right hand to throw. if you're a left hander, of course, you know what to do.

I've tried played spinner before and its quite cool but the disadvantage playing this type of method always the ball will split..hate it but when u see a pro play spinner,it's really nice coz they spin da ball very gentle and sometimes i saw people play spinner like ultraman already..hehe..they rise their hand up after spin da ball.Quite cool..

spinner used to be very popular but these days it's less effective becoz the bowling centres r putting out lanes which are either giving the advantage to hook bowlers or is fair for both hook n spinner. in both cases, the hook has the advantage unless it is a 9 pin tap event.

i advise my friends to take up spinner if they don't have the time to commit n learn to play hook and/or they want to see quick results. i've seen bowlers get good at it after just 1 month of learning. it's relatively easy compared to hook to avg 190-200.

there r soooooooooo many ways to play spinner but the chinese taipei bowlers have really mastered the art. there has been some fantastic malaysia spinners, my favourite being pang boon say. he used to be an average straight bowler, but when he switched to spinner, he even entered the national team. watching him spin was such a joy to see the pin reaction. i don't see him playing these days.

how to spin? i know a few of the techniques but not anywhere as effective as the chinese spinners. firstly for sure, ur hand and arm has to be as soft as cotton. not a single muscle strained in ur arm if possible. that would naturally keep ur elbow unbent throughout delivery, which is very important for "leverage" in the sense of spinner balls. just hold flat like a hook ball at start (palm upwards) and just before release, turn ur wrist/arm without bending ur elbow and let go of the ball when ur palm is facing down straight. i've seen some spinners turn even more till their palm is facing right n downwards to get more spin n more backup.

i do encourage learning spinner coz it's so much fun to see the pins dance around ... or what some of us affectionately call "char kuew teow". smile.gif
