7 Senior Bowling Setup Tricks the Koreans Use to Get More Strikes

Tired of good pocket hits that still leave a corner pin standing? The full system, written out properly: https://kim-bowling.com/?b=1&v=korean... Before zero strikes, after seven: that is the goal, not a promise. Some misses begin before the ball ever moves, in where you stand, how you hold the ball and where you look. These are seven setup checks you do standing still, before your first step, with the ball you already own, on the lane you already bowl. The Korean angle comes from a Seoul National University study that built pre-shot routines for tenpin bowlers, phase by phase. In this video: 1. Start on the same board: the four-and-a-half-step method (USBC) and how to follow your miss with your feet 2. Let your other hand share the weight: ball height and position (Bryan O'Keefe, USBC) 3. Set your shoulders and hips for the path you want the ball to take (and Michelle Mullen on spares) 4. Soft knees, tall chest, relaxed shoulders 5. Pick your target on the lane, not the pins: the arrows about fifteen feet out (Dean Hinitz) 6. A pre-shot routine you repeat every ball, and a post-shot routine to let the last frame go 7. One slow breath, one word, then your first step: the relaxation phase the Korean bowlers found hardest to practice The books: three in one library, for bowlers tired of leaving the ten pin and the corner pins, and a third you only get in The Complete Bowling System: https://kim-bowling.com/?b=1&v=korean... Everything is described for a right-handed bowler; left-handers mirror it. Board numbers and arrows are starting points: adjust for your own center, lane and ball.
