Improving Your Bowling Technique: Loose Arm Swing | USBC Bowling Academy

Having a loose arm swing is an important bowling technique that will lead to more consistent bowling scores. USBC Gold coach Ron Hoppe demonstrates using an arm swing tool to develop a free and straight swing. Using a new tool may help your swing become more relaxed and improve your game!

Do I need to have a big back swing? I have huge problem with my swing I force it I been told and laying the all down by my ankle as well

Seriously, what do you call that “swing” tool? Looks like a great idea for a beginner like me. Also for folks who can’t throw a ball consistently. (Mine usually go left, and when I try to correct my swing, all bets are off)

How do you have loose arm swing when the hand is under the ball then you do the pushaway. Isn't the hand holding the ball while going in the backswing? I would understand to have a loose arm swing if we break the wrist and let it just go in the backswing but do we want that? Thought we needed the hand to stay under the ball at all times during the swing?

Would this apply for a 2 hand bowler? I'm having trouble on the downswing and apporch. I need a lot of work

OK, go to your next supermarket get a plastic bag. Put some weight in it and you have the same thing!
