I recommend you guys add side view shot(s) when showing examples. It would help tremendously! ty

You were speaking directly to me. Being one of your coaching students and 68 yrs. of age, my main issues have been the crossover step and my arm swing. Brad and Kyle, you guys are awesome!

My game have benefitted from your coaching, for the longest time I am not sure what I did was right/wrong, you both have cleared so much of my doubt and I can feel my game is getting better each week, God bless you 2 kind souls for making this bowling community a much better place.

I will be 66 in March. Had 2 knee replacements and slide ankle reconstruction in the last 1 1/2 years trying to start back but it’s slow. Thanks for these videos.

Watched this video before league last night. Have been struggling all year. Average was down to 193 from 205 at the end of last year. Threw up a 268/213/264(745)

Can you guys have some tips from the left- handed point of view. Love the videos and the instructions are clear and easy to understand.

[paulp]

Love the tip about trying to hit your right leg for a right handed bowler. It definitely helps me try to keep the ball closer to my left ankle and for the ball to be under my head.

Thanks guys. It might surprise you how much of this stuff we consider to be basic no-brainer techniques are not common knowledge. I think I bowled for over 20 years before I even heard the term spine-tilt, or the cross-over step. Many of us just picked up a ball and threw it, with very bad results. It wasn't until years later that we slowly worked out the basics and began throwing the ball with proper timing or balance. Your videos are perfect for any bowler who hasn't had professional coaching. Thanks again.

Releasing great videos during my highschool bowling season and I appreciate that!

[DionMars]

Guys, thanks again! Great assistance, very educational video. Nevertheless, could you prepare a video of how you position your body in relation to the swing when you are playing from far left (40) to far right?

[DuffyJ]

Is this specifically for a 5 step approach because I have always had a 4 step approach. Thanks

[kylecrespo]

Thank you Brad and Kyle, since watching your videos/tutorials my avg in the last 8 months went from 120 to 185 seriously have helped my game immensely

[deborahlynnelentz]

Thank you so much! You guys are AWESOME! HELPS ME ALOT!

[earthring]

It’s like a golf video. So much similarity.

[cwagner]

Brad says it’s a game of misses, I think he means it ok to bowl, as long as it’s ok with the Mrs.

[frankformella]

One more thing with 4 step delivery my crossover is first step?

[wisemane]

Thank you guys for this video! I went from averaging 190 to 150 recently, and I couldn't understand why my swing was so inconsistent, especially practicing an inside release for more leverage and revs. One thing I was doing is standing straight up, which did make the ball go behind me, which has thrown off my timing at the line (has also sped up my ball speed, due to not being able to get around the ball) which means I lost revs and power. I'm going to practice this today! I appreciate you guys for the tutorials.

[kristenanderson]

I am guilty of having a power step to the right and I have been trying hard to get it directly in front. Also I still have a tendency to bring my arm behind my back instead of bringing it straight back. I was practicing last night and I pulled a lot of shots because I was thinking so hard about having a straight back and straight forward swing. Thanks once again for your awesome tips, Brad and Kyle.

[jamesbills]

If you use a crossover step you also need to use a pivot step that keeps that swing slot open the entire approach. I see many people use a crossover step correctly then they walk right with the 2nd to last step basically nullifying what you are trying to achieve.
