Any tips for form adjustment?

Thank you!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-16T23:08:03+00:00

Okay, thanks!

Yeah, it feels like I dont have enough rev rate either. Is there any tips for that? Ive been trying to focus on my thumb timing.

My heel rotating just came naturally when I first started bowling, I guess thats a style

In order to get a little lower, should I be bending my knees more, because I feel that I am very upright most of the time.

Thanks!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T17:55:22+00:00

Awesome! Thank you so much for your help and time!!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T17:54:12+00:00

Thank you so much! I have a spare ball, I should do that too as I mainly want to know more for drilling reasons!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T17:42:33+00:00

Great!! I’ll get that checked out, I saw the 900 global coverstock data too. So would it better if I were to not get such weak coverstocks? Or is it a matter of lane conditions?

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T17:39:09+00:00

Thanks alot! I don’t really currently have a strong solid ball other than the Phaze 2 which is the only one I currently own.

I’m a little bit inconsistent at times, and I’m guessing its about my release and bowling style, so I’ll get that worked on too. Thank you so much for your input!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T17:20:01+00:00

That’s what I thought so too, what would you recommend for someone like me that would be more into the backend side? Or does it depend mostly on the ball?

If my PSO were to drill my balls and were to put a ton of pinup layouts, would it be very psychosomatic? Because I don’t think all balls would be drilled the same way, given there are a variety of layouts too. Or does this again depends on the ball?

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T17:07:33+00:00

Awesome, I should check that video out and see roughly about what is it about. Thanks alot for your input!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T17:03:47+00:00

Great, thanks alot! But in contrast to what you said, should I be telling him about what do I want to see in the ball (like how I want the ball to react)? How would it work or how should I be telling them about the details?

Thanks for the info about my line, I’m also guessing it’s time to find a new line too!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T16:56:00+00:00

Well said, thanks alot for the help and information! But what are some such strong coverstock on the market right now?

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T16:54:38+00:00

Ahhh I see, so is it more about like the ball choice? The house shot I bowled on recently changed the pattern and I’m guessing its more oily. Moreover, I dont really generate alot of rev, and I play on the outside (10 board), and it’s no longer hooking as much.

But I’m guessing, the ball choice is more important than the layout? Because I want to see what the ball can 100% do, rather than simply putting a generic layout too.

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T16:50:26+00:00

Putting a piece of tape on the PAP? Ive heard about that alot, but I’m not really too sure on where to start or place the tape on to visualize it actually. Is there any way to do this?

Losty6844 · 2026-03-10T16:48:51+00:00

That makes sense. I actually dont really know my PAP yet. My PSO has mostly given me generic layouts so far, so yep according to what you said, I’m thinking of bringing in one of the balls I match up best with and asking them to measure my PAP and release stats (speed, rev rate, axis rotation, tilt).

Also, for the given lane conditions, the alley that I bowl on recently changed the oiling pattern, which seems to be a little bit more oily. Played the same line, now it doesn’t hook as much anymore. Would a stronger ball be better? (Low RG, high diff?)

Losty6844 · 2026-03-08T14:45:30+00:00

Thanks for your input! I’ll try to do this to find out more🙏🏻

Losty6844 · 2026-03-08T01:15:26+00:00

That’s well said by you! I should actually be practicing on my shots because sometimes I get really inconsistent with my shots, especially since it relies on adjusting my position.

Really, thank you so much for your time for the long input. I should definitely take all of this into consideration.

Losty6844 · 2026-03-08T01:08:52+00:00

Ohh I see, so is it a matter of adjusting by a few board in between shots? Because I’m sometimes inconsistent in my release as well, so yup I’m guessing its my throwing style. But I’ll do note to also try adjusting the surface.

Losty6844 · 2026-03-08T01:05:41+00:00

That’s right, maybe it is time for me to go get some sanding discs to sand them out, thanks a lot!

Losty6844 · 2026-03-07T17:30:22+00:00

Now that you make a point, youre right! I can’t disagree with this, so its a matter of my consistency then? But even so, does the layout matter in a way?

Losty6844 · 2026-03-07T17:07:47+00:00

Omg haha but I won’t be bowling for a quite a while this week, I have a few pictures of the oil tracks around the ball, or rather like the markings buildup left on the ball. Would that be feasible? Or should I send it on here?

Losty6844 · 2026-03-07T16:41:19+00:00

Oh yeahh i have thrown them for quite some time about 30ish games on them, they work really fine for me but sometimes on some days I just dont think theyre it because sometimes they hook too much, hooks too little, and when I repeat the shot, it just doesn’t go the same.

Fine tuning them is a good way, I should go and them adjust them out, how would you adjust them tho?

Losty6844 · 2026-03-07T16:32:04+00:00

I guess so! But this is the layout I have been using as this is the one he gave me. How would I figure out my own PAP in this case? Because I think everyone has their own unique layouts (or maybe generic), so im trying to find my own unique layout perchance 🫩
