I am 75 and have been bowling for ten years, three weeks ago I switched to two handed bowling. Your videos have been very helpful and I am having lots of fun making the change. I have already had several 200 games. It’s never too late to try something new!

Excellent content of course! On the topic of slow mo videos, I started my two handed journey doing exactly what you’re saying not to do and it took me a while to discover why I wasn’t getting consistent. Once I realized everyone is different and it’s near impossible to imitate a pro, I started to pay more attention to what everyone had in common, why they were doing that, and what is the ball doing throughout the approach. Once I started paying attention to those areas, I discovered my form started changing drastically and my consistency increased significantly! My current form is no where close to what my form was starting out during my two handed journey!

I'm 64 and started bowling about 7 months ago. I was having trouble getting revs with one hand and couldn't get my average above 154. I ran across your channel and watched most of your vidioes and decided to try two hands. My first two games were a 169 and a 177. I was pumped and striking a lot more. Now my average is around 170 and I'm told that's good for only 7 months of actual bowling. I found this video and I'm going to try your theories out. I really like your video's and how you present them in a kind of scientific way. Makes a lot a since to me! I'll keep you posted on my progress!! And keep pumping out those video's!!!

I’m 62 and have been an avid left handed bowler with good success over the past 40+ years. I have been losing power naturally over the years. I decided to practice two handed this summer. Your video was very helpful and I think I may bowl two handed this fall. Thanks.

I'm glad I ran across this video. I read through a few of these comments and I can relate. You did an excellent job of explaining what I experience when trying this technique and I plan to try again with your insights. Subscribed.

So glad to hear someone say forget about the cup/uncupping at release

Thank you for making this video. I have trouble keeping my balance right at the end when releasing the ball resulting in an arm swing that is just too slow. I use a 4-step approach and will try to do that little skip step I see you doing. Maybe that will give me that extra speed I need. I am 57 and started bowling about 10 years ago. The first 2-3 years I bowled one-handed and then switched to two-handed. This is a young man's game, but I'm trying. It was easier to keep my arm straight and follow through playing one-handed. My two-handed arm swing tends to go out -- away from my body -- instead of in (that is my elbow) and my swing is not that fast because of a lack of leg speed, and I also slow up my swing because I'm trying to hit my target and that hesitation causes me to slow down.

Thank you the most helpful videos on this style that I’ve seen.

Going to try and really think about the 2nd mindset next time I bowl. It looks like I'm dropping the ball or just pushing the ball instead of rolling it

My ball speed struggled 2 handed until I straightened out my arm in the backswing and got the ball back farther up and used more gravity to help me bring the ball down.

50% rule is a good rule of thumb but the farther back and up you can get the ball in the backswing the faster your gonna throw it. I was struggling to hit 12mph before and now I’m regularly at 17mph. Just need to control it after you add that much speed

2. yo-yo people use to describe the 1 handed release doesn’t work well for a good 2 hander because your hand is always in the best spot to generate revs, on the bottom 3/4s of the ball so why try and move your wrist from that spot mid swing when you can just take your front hand off and rip up the back of the ball to control the hook? More hook rip harder less hook make it smoother

[terrywenban]

One issue I found was that making the transfer to two handed bowling you must remember to use two hands to throw the ball to generate speed and the correct roll. Later you release it with more a one hand dominate but at first make sure you follow through with two hands.

So many different opposing theroies on two handed bowling so far.

[raymah]

Would you ever make tutorial videos on no thumb one hand form? Thx 🙏

[hgkcdju]

I used to bowl 2 handed.But my tummy is too big so its difficult for me to swing all the way back

[SuperSdbaby]

Big lie. It’s VERY DIFFERENT & VERY HARD!

dont have to imitate a pro, but you definitely gotta stop moving ur head so much during downswing and release, it seems like u snap your head to your left
