168-190

[Toxic300]

I currently average 168 in my Saturday league and really think I can get that up to 190 next season, but right now I have too many games to get it in there.

My biggest problem is my finger rotation inconsistency. Sometimes I get more thumb in the ball, but sometimes I get that sweet roll with the fingers (pounding the pocket everytime). The problem is that it's never consistent and I think I am holding on to the ball too long.

Can anybody help me?

I struggle with the same thing. I think it's a matter of timing. It seems that when my arm comes through early is when I hang on with my thumb. If my release is better timed, more after my slide, then I can keep my thumb under it and snap it off my hand with my fingers leaving the ball last.

Thanks. I'll try this out next time I hit the lanes.
