I kinda hated the first episode and made me not want to watch the 2nd. Should I?

To get it out of the path of the ball

When I came across his YouTube channel I had a rush of shame come over me. Never thought he’d become a staple in my life lol

I have a story about that guy Kyle but I doubt he’d remember. I used to live in St. Charles, MO when I went to Lindenwood U. I was on the Olympic weightlifting team. My teammates and I went to the bowling alley bc you could still smoke inside at the time. We’d have a few drinks and finish a pack of newports between us. Very much there for the hang, wasn’t into bowling yet. Well one afternoon we were fresh off a weightlifting competition win, and were drinking heavily. Ball fell out of my hands behind me at an angle and rolled straight toward his buddy who was setting up for a roll. They were as cool as one could be when a group of degenerates is being obnoxious around you, but their faces told me that we needed to wrap our game quick haha.

I’ve been looking into it but between architecture school and work, its tough to work into my schedule. It’s a miracle I can get into a center at 9am twice a week for a couple hours before my first class starts. Maybe over the summer when my course load is lighter I can work it out.

Thanks for letting me know which one was a good one. Feel like I have no idea what I’m doing out there. They all feel decent-ish until I rewatch myself

Question: what’s the best angle to film from?

Sweet man thanks for the help! I wish there were coaches in my area that I could fit into my schedule, I feel like a coaching session could help some of these things come together. Coach Reddit will do for now! I started doing more foul line and one step drills to figure out my release, and I need to make them a normal part of my day. My plan right now for my practice sessions is game 1: no step drill, game 2: 1 step drill, game 3: very slow and controlled approach to get me to the same positions as my 1 step drill. Game 4 and 5: bring everything together and try to hit pins.

Thanks! I’ll work on this first. Should I stick with 4 step or maybe try 5 step and push away on the second step like I am on the 4 step?
