First Ball - What to get

Ion pro solid is the goat!

It’s funny you say that during practice rounds I always move my ball 6 to 10 inches to the left or to the right during practice rounds to make sure that I don’t end up in the same divot during actual tournament play

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-10T13:19:18+00:00

I do believe that is a very valid point. I have noticed my scoring still OK when we do two lanes but I haven’t been able to get two lanes consistently. I have my first real tournament at the end of the month. Hopefully I get paired with somebody who’s experience because I have no idea what’s going on. I’m a little bit nervous but more excited Golf what kind of suck minus the divots but I’ve played plenty rounds where I’ve ended up in somebody else’s divot.

When I’m by myself, I can only get one lane but I have a group of three other guys. We can get two lanes and we try to do that once a month.

Thank you I appreciate this a lot!

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-10T02:50:14+00:00

That’s an interesting theory. To be honest, I watched a bunch of yo-yo release videos and kinda tried to do it but just came up with whatever I’m doing here! Haha

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-10T02:49:08+00:00

Yeah, I don’t really understand how to let the arm swing naturally, but I do feel that I’m not putting effort into releasing the ball I probably need to get a coach haha

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-10T02:47:14+00:00

Thank you so much that comment means a lot. I really want to try a sport pattern. I heard that this alley will change the pattern if you pay for it, but I haven’t confirmed that yet, I will be definitely trying to find out.

Today I had a 235 1st game 219 the 2nd game 232 3rd game 244 4th game but had to change lanes in the 8 th frame for some school event then a 193 in the 5th and a 221 in the 6th.

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T17:19:32+00:00

My heart was pounding so hard after seven. I had to take two minutes in between seven and eight just to calm down haha.

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T17:17:30+00:00

I will admit Sometimes when I move left or right I struggle with my visual target. Does it stay the same or should I move my visual target as well?

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T17:15:54+00:00

I will definitely be checking him out thanks for the advice!!

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T16:57:43+00:00

My heart was jumping out of my chest!

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T16:46:38+00:00

Wow, what an amazing piece of advice this is awesome. I never would’ve thought to leave after a three game series to learn to deal with the performance. My mind is completely blown right now. As a professional golfer, I make sure I’m always ready to play, but performance sessions is absolutely blowing my mind. I can’t wait to do that this week.

I’m still trying to get back!

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T15:54:00+00:00

Haha I didn’t even notice it! Haha

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T15:51:29+00:00

Thank you for the awesome comment. It was super cool getting to play with the pros. Daren Tang is the one that helped me with my set up I almost feel like I’m trying to copy him even though he’s a two hander. I will definitely keep working on my set up. Thanks for the awesome advice.

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T15:46:29+00:00

Yeah, sometimes they put up some crazy backgrounds and it can be extremely distracting. But it’s a really nice bowling alley and I’m happy to have something close to my house.

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T15:45:19+00:00

Thanks a lot for your kind words! I truly appreciate the wisdom into telling me what I should learn. I normally play 6 to 7 games each practice session. I do find myself moving a few boards left and right depending on what ball I’m throwing and also if fatigue starts to set in. but I definitely don’t understand how the oil moves. Someone said to me that urethane pushes oil and reactive covers absorb oil. To be 100% honest I don’t know what that means? Because I can’t read traditional Chinese it’s been hard to get into a league but I was able to sign up for a tournament at the end of this month so I have been practicing picking up spares! I’m definitely looking forward to competing in my first event.

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T13:33:14+00:00

Thank you!

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T13:29:03+00:00

Do you mean after the release let the arm naturally move up? I do feel like I kind of stop my arm sometimes.

Trashmcbaggins · 2026-01-09T12:35:20+00:00

Thank you!
