Bowler Break Down - Richy 

Honestly this is a refreshing take seeing a bowler taking training seriously. Analyzing the problem and breaking down the pain points one by one.

Well, I'm convinced. Been seeing a lot of Mark over the past couple months and seems like an excellent investment for the summer.

Mark Baker is what a coach should be imo. He doesn’t break you down or make you feel silly for attempting anything. He even stated himself he doesn’t want anyone to feel bad or be berated for not doing something good. He wants you to learn and enjoy it. I’m so tempted to send a vid so I can get advice on my 2h situation

6 week mark is so much better!! fun to watch, feeling inspired.

He's awesome! I got help from Mark too. Timing was his thing for me as well. I didn't have an issue stating under and behind the ball, but I did miss in and out a lot. I'm the same height as Mark, and he told me to bowl big because I was tilting wayyyyy too soon.

I think it's useful to think about why that 2nd step is so big as well. The ball ends up getting pushed so far away from you in your push away and your wrist is already broken back from the start. If the ball is so far away from your body at the beginning, it's gonna make you want to take a bigger step so your right leg can catch up and catch the weight of the ball. Combine that with the broken wrist at the beginning, and it can feel like you're being pulled forward with the ball rather than the ball just swinging comfortably. It'll also probably be easier to be underneath the ball at release if you don't immediately put your wrist in a weaker position at the very beginning of your swing. Don't feel too pressured to implement anything that I post though. Too many cooks in the kitchen is confusing, and too many coaches telling you a bunch of different stuff is confusing as well. This is just similar to what I used to do and struggled with a lot, the backswing getting super tall, a very weak wrist position at release, a big 2nd step, a super exaggerated crossover... I'm getting flashbacks hearing all this stuff lol

Bro looking good after 6 weeks. I went to camp bakes later year and he definitely helped me a ton. I might try kegal in a few weeks in Florida. I'm nervous about the drills. I'm not a fan of drills and I'm nervous they'll knit pick my form and style. I average 210 but I have physical fundamentals from progressing.

I don't like crossover steps, either, and I'm relieved to hear someone else say it out loud. 😁

Great video! So much to learn here. Thanks for sharing! Subscribed

Love this. I hope it helps me as well. Thanks or sharing

really helpful, thanks

Best breakdown I've seen and steps taken to improve form. Any possibility doing one with a two hander?

Thanks for sharing. Just now getting back into things and want to approach from a more technical standpoint. Definitely leaning toward the Baker video adjustments, but feel like I still need to work some kinks out on my own before that. Is it just 2 video calls or are there more?

You really did show great improvements. How is it all going still? Would love to see a follow up video.

Thanks for sharing! How would I get in touch with the instructor?

Do I need to even move my right foot in front of my left at all during the approach? Should I just walk straight with my right foot.

Baker kept mentioning many times a couple of your steps are too long.. so why haven't you moved up on the approach to shorten them? that to me is the easiest solution?

How did you get him to give you a video analysis?

Did you measure rev rate before and after to see if there was actually an improvement?

If you want to get under the ball, then don’t have such a high backswing
