I've noticed that at the point of delivery my leg is slightly bent, are there any drills to improve it?
Any constructive criticism would be welcomed.
Thanks
Blake

That is a nice action there Blake, I noticed though that in the Me Bowling at the Nets 3 video at the 14 seconds mark you ran in and slammed your foot down, where I paused it though it seemed as if your leg was stiff which isn't what i'd be doing, am I right?

Thanks! What are you asking specifically? Sorry, I'm a bit tired!

I didn't notice it at all. I would keep that action Blake, because it seems fairly solid.

I am interested to know what your run up is. Just how many steps.

Is your leg actually stiff when you run in or is it just the video.

I counted 10 steps in his run up Jake.

Tip

Srry i am new here, but i have some suggestions. when your front arm comes down, you get it from the position and put it down. you need to get it up and down. dont throw your front arm, get it up and bring it down, try to bend it minimal. if you try this it works as a trigger and you will be able to bowl faster. als keep your body tight when you run up. and come closer to the target you stop a bit. you should follow through to your target.
hope this is useful for you.
