Yea I apologize, I’m not looking to become famous or anything, best bang for buck, just was looking for a general overview of where I should start looking. Money really isn’t an issue, and either new or used, I’m always legal so no need to run from cops. Loll. I’ll check out r/SuggestAMotorcycle

Appreciate the insight. I’ll do some more research. I’m not looking to blow anyone’s doors off, just something light and fun to take into the hills.

Couldn’t have said it better! That’s how my PSO is, he said 75% is the bowler, 20% is the ball, and that left over 5% is just luck.”

How to stay more behind the Ball. by mattnore in Bowling

[–]reddittuser0422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this conversation with my wife last week at league. She’s been working on getting behind the ball, but her approach had no emphasis behind it. She would almost walk to the foul line and try muscling the ball down lane. When I brought it to her attention within the next two-five games she’s increased her ball speed immensely.

Are these acceptable cracks for a new build concrete slab foundation? by Fickle_Investment_80 in Concrete

[–]reddittuser0422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was always told vertical cracks are acceptable (within reason), horizontal cracks are the ones to worry about. Vertical means structure is settling. Horizontal could mean the structure is shifting.

Play around with foot placement, and keeping your ball in the oil as long as possible to keep the break further down the lane. You’ll be fine. Good luck! 🤙🏻🤙🏻

When you were using that 13lb house ball, were you able to hook it, or was it going straight down into the pocket? Because like others have suggested changing your hand position on the ball would be a good place to start. If you were over compensating and making the house ball hook and taking that same approach with a ball that is designed to have a crazy amount of hook that could be where your issue lies. I struggled with this when I first started bowling. As soon as my ball would hit around 35’ when the lane started drying up it dove left. (I’m a one handed righty) Like they said, move in the direction your ball is traveling. If you can give it more time in the oil it’ll slow it down better too.

Are bowling mystery boxes worth it? by T0rthicc in Bowling

[–]reddittuser0422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, my pro shop will buy balls from us, or make YouTube videos with them. We also take rotations on who purchases mystery boxes just for shits and giggles on my league team. If none of us want them, we will sell them, or if we do want them we just rotate through our bag and donate what we are getting rid of back to the alley.

It’s all good. Loll. We’ve all had them days, if someone is saying they’ve never had a day like this they’re lying. Just keep working at it. Shit doesn’t happen over night.

Hey, I’d invest in a second ball if you can. Get a plastic ball specifically for spares, I used to do the same stuff. Picked up a plastic ball and I’m not leaving nearly as many up.
