ade.. nt sy PMed awk...

xde topic baru ke tntg teknik2 hook yg betol..step ke..ade kate yg 5 stepok dr 4..

steps depending on your style.. some play 4 step some play 5 steps.. some can play 10 steps..

I tell you 4 and 5 steps only lah.. because these two are the main ones.. 4 step ball speed is usually slower than 5 step ball speed.. 5 step has more momentum as you go with your steps compared to 4 step..

I relaly have no idea for those ppl who has 10 steps..

owh yeke...sebab sy men 4 steps je..bola x mantap laa ekk?sebab bile sy hook bola tue,bile kene pin msuk poket, tp impak die x kuat...knape ekk?

maybe sbb release x kena...
bola x rotate x ckup..
or kadang2 maybe sbb bola tu...
bola yg kita guna pun kena ambil kira gak..

there is alot of other possibility.. ball speed not enough.. you axis rotation is not enough.. your release is not good.. your pocket hit is not good.. or your ball is just not gripping the lanes and pins properly... put up a video of you then I can tell what is wrong..

since u r in batu pahat.. I cant go down there and watch u bowl..

I help you keep the ball rolling.. to hook properly.. you need to see your release and your ball drillings.. lets leave out the drilling..

to hook a ball there is 3 types of release..

1. 0 axis rotation
which means u just release with your hand behind your ball all the way up.. if you found your PAP.. the PAP point will be facing the left wall..

2. 45 degree axis rotation
which means you release the ball with your fingers at 4-5 o'clock position... if you found your PAP.. the PAP point will be facing 45 degrees out..

3. 90 degree axis rotation
which means you release the ball with your fingers at 3 o'clock position.. if you found your PAP.. the PAP point will be staring directly at you..

the 0 axis rotation has the least amount of hook because it depends mainly on the ball's core.. 45 degree is more common because its easy to release and everyone seems to be doing it.. its easier to control also.. 90 degree is mostly for power players.. budak cranker.. 90 degree gives you the most hook.. but if you dont know how to control it.. its very very hard to control the hook..

ok.. the axis rotation part is done..

now to have a more powerful hook.. you need revs.. you need to cup the ball and flick it while you release it. so that you ball will start rolling at extremely crazy speed.. the more revs you have.. the more powerful your hook is.. if your revs is above 300rpm and you have a 4 1/2" to 5" pin to PAP drilling.. your ball will have an extremely sharp backend.. it will just snap into the pocket..

sometimes your hook will be like skid then hook then mati(as in roll into the pocket.. not hook into it).. the reason being is that mostly the lane is not oily enough or your release is wrong.. if lane is not oily you need to polish your ball.. if your release is wrong.. you must push the ball when you release it..

so when you release, you must do 3 things.. do it all after the ball passes your ankle! cup, push, and flick! remember that your hand must be behind your ball until you reach your ankle..

there is one more part to this.. which is the axis tilt.. that one next time I explain lah.. I need to go out..

there is a problem with your release.. you are turning the ball before reaching your ankle.. all the turns must be after your ankle.. tangan ko mesti di belakang bola b4 kaki ko.. and also.. you are dropping your ball.. release after your ankle.. not at your ankle or before..

if your ball speed is a concern.. then I might suggest you increase you backswing..

since you using ur guard.. you dont need to cup the ball or flick.. I might suggest you to "pull" the ball with you fingers when you release it.. just imagine you pulling up the ball with ur fingers.. increase some revs.. harder hit..

sunway pro shop has a variety of STORM products.. if u love your bowling ball to smell sweet and u love storm.. then go sunway.. haha..

sorry.. I dont understand..

backswing is your ball swinging to the back of you.. during ur 2 and 3rd step..

he said about release timing if not mistaken

betol kate bro wadud...timing release tu...mcm mane..

ohh.. ok ok.. release after your ball passes your ankle..

if you cannot time properly.. try to imagine releasing your ball smoothly.. dont just drop it.. let it like roll out of your hands instead of just falling off.. ..

ok thanx bro...kalo nak jage bola mcm mane?
biar kilat je n bersih dr minyak..
ade cre len ke slain anta pro shop...

haa akhirnya jumpa jugak artikel yang senang aku faham.. tq geng.. yang penting aku kena cari PAP aku dulu.. aritu pegi pro shop lupa pulak aku nk suh dia cari PAP aku.. huhu.. ader budget maybe aku nk try bola C system 3.5 tu.. nampak dia punya spec boleh tahan.. kalau order dalam 2 minggu baru sampai..

korang kat forum ni xde buat order barang2 boling dari oversea ke?.. maybe kalau ader kita leh sharing ramai2 dia punya shipping cost
