u mean max hook izit?

my school mate which is very big size and tall he got the power to do max hook... he just learn for a week only..somemore doesnt need wrist guard.. damn.. i manage to play basic hook only...

Oh...wrong spelling..sorry.My mistake.

Well,there's a technique how to learn hook.Not all people can hook and as u said that ur friend can learn hook within few weeks,i think maybe he was born to hook..hahaha..

There's 2 different people when they hook.Even when they get strike in a row in his game,doest mean that he is good.We call it LUCK.Maybe he is in a good mood at that time and that's why he got all strike in his game.The other one is a bowlers that really know how to hook da ball and he know when he can turn his hand and how many degree should he turn his hand.Normally,people who didnt wear wrist guard is quite pro becoz he know when he should turn his hand and fingers to do hook!!!I still cant do that.Even when i want to throw da ball,my hand cant support the weight of the ball.That's y i have to wear wrist guard!!!

But the best hook i've ever seen is that there's one guy who have no fingers in his right hand and he turn the ball only using his right thumb(the only fingers that he have)and his left hand.The hook is so powerful.I think maybe can make 90 degree kot!!!But both hand need to put the same strength and the same turn when he want to hook to make a great HOOK...he's a professional bowler and i forgot his name already!!!

By da way.U still play bowling and how often u play bowling and where?

errr...what do u mean basic hook?is it when u throw da ball at the arrow no2 from the right?

hahaha..what make u stop bowling?is becoz of money?most of people beczuse of money and time....me both!!!hahaha

time lor. now no time to go play oredy. summore play alone, boring ler.

ya ya... i'm using 13lbs ball also my fingers cant grip nicely.. instead of hook the balls goes like spinning... thats why my guard is damn important when bowling..
lol.. i also saw my state team bowler when they're training.. got this bowler also doing the 90 degree thing.. he bend his body damn low some more.. the ball will fall on my back if i did that..

i stopped bowling looong ago adee cos change sport to swimming..

yaya... until more than half the lane then only it will go to 1 3 pin... using plastic ball only so cant do last minute..

hahaha...i admit it that play alone is boring.Most o my friends dont like to play bowling coz they are sengkek...i trained alone every weekend.Have to.If not,i will forgot all the steps(last time).But,playing alone sometimes is OK.U can concentrate on ur games.....hehehe...But when u get strike ,no one will clap hand for u...

i wonder now if i bowl again... doing straight ball also dunno the ball can go straight or not...
