What's so bad about drifting? It's become more commonplace in the sport today considering the aggressiveness of the balls. As long as it's repeated in the same fashion then there's nothing wrong with it. It makes feeding the ball to the right easier.
Beautiful ball. Good pin action in the back, and deep power. I have completely bad drifting. I go from left, back to the right. Do you have any advice on helping to fix that?
I love how everyone thinks that drifting left (or right for that matter) is such a big deal. I can virtually guarantee that NO ONE walks completely straight. Guys that feed the ball right are usually going to drift somewhat left. Tom Small wood drifts probably 20 boards as well, and he's done alright this year. Bottom line, as long as you repeat the approach, it doesn't matter if you play hopscotch on the way to the foul-line!
actually what i said was i would not buy this ball by watching him bowl due to that he does not hit the same area so i have no clue what the ball does, he is playing with a 5-7 board difference on some of the shots i want to watch a consitent bowler throw this ball
LOL you guys are funny....if you watch the video you'll see the 1st shot takes place on the right lane (which was playing tighter, thus farther right).
The next 3 are on the left lane (21) with the ball at the breakpoint at approx. board 12, 10, & 11 in that order.
@csufdrew isnt it great that people will watch your vid and bash you about accuracy/style/consistancy etc. the funny thing is that most of the time they dont even have vids of them bowling xD
I never asked that, i was just asking if the miss room was big, if you can't miss 1 board and hit the pocket then theirs no point in buying this ball....
it really depends on the lane conditions, your ball speed, revs, etc. In my case I can miss probably 2 right and have the ball bank off the dry and still hit the pocket.
what do you mean form doesnt count in bowling, if you have good form you will be able to get a consistent shot over and over again. plus if you dont do that drift you would prolly be more square with the lanes therefore also giving you a more consistent shot
nice attitude, fuckstick. you're right, there's nothing wrong with drifting as long as you can repeat shots....only you CAN'T. you were all over the place, you didn't hit the same target or breakpoint twice.
from this video, you have no consistency, and that's because of the huge drift. maybe you should focus less on your shitty attitude and more on your ability to repeat shots....
and the shots that were on the same lane were not even close to being at the same breakpoint twice. you drift entirely too much, which is why you can't repeat shots.
i don't know about you, but unless one lane is fresh and the other on the same pair is completely broken down, i can play virtually the same breakpoint all day. stop acting like you're some hotshot, you're not. take some suggestions and work on not drifting so much.
trust me, i used to drift almost as much as you...
what's his form got to do with how good a ball is or isn't? that makes you sound like a fucking idiot. the ball rolls great, and he doesn't throw it BAD. he just has no accuracy. you judging a BALL by someone's form makes you retarded.
i match up pretty well with this guy in terms of speed and revs, and i like how it rolls for him. that's how you gauge a ball, by how it rolls for someone with whom you can compare yourself....not by their form. idiot.

good call dude...i drift a good 5 boards on my approach but i do it everytime so i still average well over 200

put down a towel so you don't drift left of your target. You "wander" 20 boards left rather than walking straight towards your target.

My PAP is ~5" over and 1 3/8 up. This ball is drilled with the pin above and in between the fingers with the CG in the middle of the grip at midline.

Hey, how big would you say the miss room with this ball is, i'm debating on this or the storm Reign of Fire
StormBowler1994 2 years ago
@StormBowler1994
bowling balls don't create area, lane conditions do. all depends on the conditions and surface you bowl on, and your physical game...

@StormBowler1994
this isn't a miracle ball that creates room. You still need to hit your targets. as Taz said the lane conditions dictate "miss room"

You have a huge ass drift to the left lol. You dont throw it bad though. I would just work on fixing your drift at the last second.

you have the worst form ever just from seeing your legs hahahahahaha wouldnt buy this ball by watching you bowl
bfgolf09 2 years ago
uh.....thanks....I guess :-) last I checked I dont think someones form or legs counted in bowling. just if you can repeat shot after shot.
I'll work on my legs and perfecting my form just for you!
