Spare shooting is a very underrated and sometimes forgotten aspect of the game. When I show people that you can roll a 200 game with only two strikes, it emphasizes the importance of spare conversion all the more.

I so enjoy JR's tutoring .
His teaching is super simple and he makes you believe that it can be done .

I think spare shooting is common sense but I see so many people struggle with it. This is a good video for the struggling spare shooter

Wow! I'm impressed with this clear and effective way of making spares.

Watching these old vids to the new ones you really see how far you’ve come physically. Looking good man. Keep hitting them workouts. Thanks for the tips.

Saw this on my Recommended and I’m glad I watched it. As a right-handed bowler, the 10-pin kills me whenever I miss it. Thanks for the advice!! My coaches help me with this, but seeing an actual visualization brings a whole new perspective on it!

I for a time was straight shooting the 7 and 10 as a right hander at these angles shown here, i was getting good at the 10 with the spare plastic ball doing left side to right straight shot, however for the 10 and anything left of the 1 I learned to just pitch normal with my reactive ball, the more left i needed to go the more right with my steps i would place myself going 3-6-9 boards and aiming for the same arrow for a hooked spare, works every time.

This video will end up being your most-watched IMO.

Nice video! I love the torch for illustrating your line. Newbies might note that your ball has to start at the board the torch would pass over — not your foot. It took me a lot of practice to walk a straight line toward the pin, and get my shoulders square to the target. But it is so cool to make those spares everyone else struggles with.

Late to the video... but it's great! The torch made me realize that you can use anything that is lined up over the pin that reflects off of the lane surface. e.g. the picture frames in this video... above lane wall art in bowling centers.

I made the same comment to my daughter and some people on her bowling team about how much room for error you really have when going for single pin spares. It was amazing to me that they thought single pins were more difficult to pick up than multipin leaves.

Thank you for the upload, I've been bowling youth for almost 3 years now and spares have always been my downfall, whether's a 10 pin or the washout. I never realized how crucial the angle at the 10 pin was. Keep it up!

Great video with the Torch to actually show the straight lines needed.

A very helpful and constructive video, and it ended at just the right time--before I lapsed into insanity from the repetitious music. Meanwhile, one of my opponents in last week's league was a strike machine with an 8 handicap. His only downfall was that he cannot make a 10-pin, by his own admission, and that's what happened all night. At one point, we were both up there together with one, so I told him, "Let's see who can make it." I made mine, but then he wasn't even close. It's amazing that his game is so good; yet, he has no game plan for that spare.

I have always had more struggle hitting the 10 pin as a lefty than I have hitting the 7. I appreciate the tips! Definitely gonna try this next time I go out bowling! Always lined myself up straight with the 10 giving myself almost no room for error to hook into that 10 pin. P.S. I also bowl with no thumb, only my 2 middle fingers in the ball.

Thanks for the help! I’m tired of missing spares 🤣

Hello I stumbled across your channel here and I love that laser tool I wish I'd had something like that but years ago because I threw a big hook ball when the only people in the world were throwing a big Hook was Mark Roth who I happen to bowl in a program with which just excited my heart's no end and he gave me quite a few pointers during our game but at that time I was leaving a lot of 10 pins I'm a right-handed bowler and I was probably making 40% of my 10 pins and missing 60% and most of them were to the left so one Saturday afternoon I went out to one of my local centers that I bold at and I decided I was going to make the 10 pin 98% of the time I didn't want to give myself a hundred percent cuz you know you got to have a little room for error but what I ended up doing was I moved all the way over to the left just like always and I was throwing over the 20th border or the middle arrow and what I had done was I broke my wrist during my shot so that would be virtually no spin or hook on the ball yes I was using a plastic ball at the time but you know I was still you know cranking the Chibis out of the ball and that's why I was missing it to the left so me by breaking my wrist that cut down any hook action at all and now some 40 years later I'm still having picking up the 10 pin probably 98% of the time
