  • Trailing Arm Tip

    Heres a trick from Kegel to help you keep from pulling shot's.

    One of the best ways is to keep the trailing arm back, but even with your shoulders.

    To do this have the thumb of your non bowling hand turned down and slightly pointed toward the approach behind you.

    This will help lock your arm and keep your shoulder from rotating and help keep your balance in check.

    When you watch the pro's keep a eye out for them doing this.

    Very interesting tip. I've had a problem with bringing my trailing arm back behind me. Going to give this a try asap.

      This was one of the coach tips I got right before the PBA league started - one night I was tired and pulling the hell out of shots - he just simply said point the thumb down and it made a big difference in the next few shots - then I realized I was too tired (11 games into it) so I stopped.

      I have been doing this more ever since, but I sometimes still get the trailer arm behind me - this is only from trying to rev the ball up more on the longer patterns. (I know, I know, don't do it - but it's a process in the process of a process and I'm learning
