Damn, it's about time somebody figured that out, two hands are better than one, pretty simple really. Brilliant!

Reminds me of the Fosbury Flop.

two handed is the best. it is much easier than one handed since you can control the rotation a lot easier.

my friend brendan is probably the best two handed bowler in illinois..

two handed bowling is the way to go. I have been doing it since I was young and it is working well

@EGarrett01 and now the Fosbury Flop is the standard, can wait for more two handers :)

[TheCandysmoker]

they talk about how long you can last throwing two handed and that it torques and contorts your body....I have recently switch to two handed bowling because its actually easier on my wrist with the two handed back swing, I throw around 14-15 mph down only about 1 mph from my one handed style and now less than half of the wrist pain. The only thing it may hurt is your lower back I guess because you are kinda bent over but i have decent back and ab muscles to compensate for that and ave up 11

I have cerbral palsy, and my right hand seems to work better than my left, so I've always been a two-handed bowler. The thing is I swing the ball in front of me and let it roll. I can't really throw the ball like a right-handed person like that, it just seems so awkward to me.

I'm looking 5 foot steps for 2 handed bowler, anyone see it?

I've started using this style to me it feels more natural and it feels like i have more control. I haven't used this style to pickup spares all the much unless its something like the 1,2,4 but if its a single pin i go back to my 1 handed style.

Like Jason said you can play however you want but you wont find that many coaches for two handed style so you will have to teach yourself. Its always good to try different styles so you have more options.
