I would assume by your screen name and your problem, that you are a woman. This is a common problem with women because our wrists just aren't as strong as mens. This is something men just don't understand because they don't have the problem! No offense. It's just us girls still are weaker. I struggled with throwing a backup ball for quite some time, but finally rid myself of it. Now I throw a powerful hook and average 185+. I would strongly suggest you working out of that backup and working into a straight ball or a slight curve. The biggest thing you need to remember is to keep your wrist straight. Everytime you release the ball, bring your arm up, as if you were reaching out to shake hands with the pins. This is the proper release. You might want to wear a brace to help keep your arm & wrist straight, but I don't like to push it because they are too easy to become dependant upon. \n\nGood luck and many strikes to you!

First let's define what a 7-10 is.\n\nUsing 0 as 10, bowling pins all have numbers and are arranged as such\n\n7____8____9____0\n__4____5____6__\n_____2___3_____\n_______1_______\n\nLeaving the two outer pins (the 7 and the 10) is called a 7-10 split. \n\nNicknames for this hardest of all shots in bowling are "The Goalposts" or "Bedposts".\n\nMaking the 7-10 split is pure luck but the best way to make it is to hit either pin slightly off-center and have it bounce off the side-board or come out of the pit to knock down the other pin.\n\nIf memory serves me correctly, the 7-10 has only been made three times on televison by professional bowlers and the conversion rate is well below 1%.\n\nTo throw a "perfect" 7-10, one throws the ball in the pocket and leaves both a ringing 7 and a ringing 10 pin (four pin goes around the 7 and the 6 pin goes around the 10).\n\nIt is blind luck to get a 7-10 and blind luck to MAKE the 7-10.

if he is really into bowling theres no way you can get one that will be what he would use for sure.  there is so many veriations and you would have to know which ones he has.  I would say just get a gift cert. if he is really into bowling.  For instance each ball has different RG, HP, Rev rate, core veriations, pin positions and coverstock for different lane conditions.  No it has nothing to do with looks unless he really isnt into it but I bet if you are wanting to get a ball for them they are.\n\nprobably the best thing to do is get a GC from an online store they are cheaper by 30%.  I use www.bowling.com and have bought atleast 10 balls from them and have always been happy.

Tough one, given the evolving fitness situation.  But I'd go for the following:\n\n1. Trescothick\n2. Strauss\n3. Bell\n4. Pietersen\n5. Collingwood\n6. Flintoff (c)\n7. G. Jones (wk)\n8. Plunkett\n9. Hoggard\n10. Mahmood\n11. Panesar\n\nI must admit that I'm uncomfortable with such an inexperienced bowling line-up, but I prefer to give the youngsters the experience and the chance to show what they are made of, rather than either risk Simon Jones too early in his recovery or go back to experienced county players who can fill a hole but don't have an international future.

You probably did not hit the pocket at the right angle. You need to hit the pocket just right to strike. When you leave a single pin in the back row, it is called a tap. If you keep leaving the 8 pin on the first ball of every frame, you might want to try the no-tap scoring format. In no-tap bowling, if you get a 9 count on the first ball of a frame, it counts as a strike. You might want to try it!

First of all what you need is:\n\nYou always need to be positive. Always talk to yourself, while batting, that you can pull the game even from 0/9.\n\nBatting in last over or looking for some quick runs:\n\nIf you are looking to score some quick runs to shift the score, then always opt for straight. Back over the bowlers head. That´s where no fielder will be placed. If you are batting in Power-Plays then try to hit it bit over the top to make sure that you would get atleast four (4) runs out of it. Don´t take too many risks. Because if you can get 12 runs in one over, then just think that it´s better to pick 6 from every over.\n\nAdvices:\n\nIf you want your team to win, then always attack your opposition´s best bowler. Don´t defend against. Never think that you shouldn´t give him your wicket to boost his moral. Because, bowlers such as McGrath, will either get on top of you or either would get thrashed by the oppostion. So, by defending against him, you would just boost him, though bit slowly than giving your wicket, but it certainly dents your chances. Be a good batsman on every side of the wicket. Though, every batsman has his favourite shots. But you can even give a weakness to the opposition by doing this. One thing that you really need is sense. You should be such batsman that if they can block your shots, then try to milk the bowling by picking up singles. Be a good runner. Never miss a opportunity to take a run. Never look towards the bowler after getting out to him. Never hear what the bowler says. They might say "Come on, hit one for six (6)", but you should never listen to them. Because you would be kicking yourself by giving your wicket away because of the verbal skills of the bowler. Because you would feel "He didn´t anything. It´s me who gave my wicket away after getting carried away".\n\nI hope for the best for you!\n\nRawal.

Make the bowling stronger you automatically win. First 6 overs to opening bowlers. thats 12 overs. Than a medium pacer and a spinner 10 overs. thats 12+20 = 32. Now Bring in a prt time bowler who bowls about tree overs and the pacer who has not yet bowled. Go with him for 10 overs and after the partime bowlers jobs over bring in the second opening bowler. finish his 9 overs nd best bowlers ten. If a bowler is not bowling well than use a five man spell which means each bowler gets an over after five overs. That will make some confussion to a bats man. and good luck with the batting.(Choose the best fielding. choose the fieling where batsman hits the most) good luck.

7-10-1? three pins? that's much easier than just 7-10. take a 8 lb ball, go from left and aim at the right of the 1 pin. let the 1 bounce and hit the 7 while the ball will also bounce to hit the 10! Got it?

On the Babolat sign the two lines are at the bottom of the circle, so when the sign is right side "up", the lines are "down".\nI can see the problem...\nYou can either tell your opponent beforehand how you want to do it when you spin your own Babolat racket, or if you are getting hooked by a Babolat brand player, you can play dumb and go either way!!\nWhen the lines are at the top (up) you win the toss, if the sign is the right side "up" you also win the toss!!\nIn all honesty you have to clarify how you do it before you spin it...

You don't say how much of a "beginner" you are but the first thing you should do to start off is to have your own ball (proper weight) properly drilled at a pro shop which most times are located within bowling centers. Now, depending on how long and how much you've been bowling, to throw a curve depends on what type of fingergrips you use. I use a fingertip ball, which means that I only put my fingers into the ball up to the first joint. You could try a semi-fingertip, too, which works for some people. There are so many details and fine-tuning that needs to take place, and it's all a personal thing; like what's comfortable for you. Then follow the basics: your approach, your backswing, and finally your release and follow-through. Make sure though, that you don't force a curve with turning your hand around to spin the ball. This a bad habit to learn. All are equally important...and, of course, hitting your mark on the lanes. Once you get all these things into rhythm, then all you need to do is practice, practice and more practice.

What type of ball do you throw?\nDo you throw a hook, curve or straight at the pins?\n\nMost bowling ball manufacturers make balls for varying levels of expertise and you will definitely find something to your liking. \n\nIf you go hard and straight then plastic or urethane would be good.\nIf you hook or curve then urethane or reactive covers might be better for you.\nI like plastic for the spares since it goes nice and straight.\n\nI put ballreviews.com in the sources because people review every bowling ball that comes out its a great informative sight.\n\nHope this helps

Throw that ball as hard and as fast and as straight as you can to the right of the ten pin if you a right handed bowler. If you're a lefty, aim for the seven pin. I don't believe there is any skill involved in carrying a 7/10 split though. It's all luck honey!!!

From the left side of the pins instead of the right...more to the point:\n\nBrooklyn: A first ball to the left of the headpin for right-handers, to the right of it for left-handers. (crossing over)

Try the same thing I did.....  Go to Brunswick.com to search for a Brunswick certified pro shop that will rejuvenate your Ultimate Inferno.  I tried the same thing with my Radical Inferno and it worked like a charm!  I guess the Brunswick polish had abrasives in it, in addition to using the Brunswick rough pads and totally brought the hook and action back to my equipment.\n\nAlso now, since my bowling center is putting down more challenging oil patterns, I went to Bowlingball.com to search for some of Brunswick's Overseas International bowling balls that have more reactive hooking coverstocks, but at a cheaper price than the US releases.  I've been using an International Master Zone as my light oil ball and Radical Inferno for medium/oily conditions.  The Total Inferno is also coming out soon.....
