Anyone here bowl often? I need some help with a technique problem.
Little background- I used to bowl in a dead straight line, averaged between 130-170 per game using a 14lb starter and 12lb for individual pins/spares. The people I bowl with every week started curving their throws because it's supposed to get you a higher overall score when you get acclimated to it.
I started making the transition 2 weeks ago, started with a 10lb, then moved between 11-16 trying to find my sweet spot. 12 feels the best for curving, but there's a slight problem- I have one of the hardest fucking curves ever and Idk how to temper it. I've tried everything, every weight of ball, throwing it just past the line, throwing it half way down the lane, and no matter what, it curves all the way across the lane most of the time. I always thought the issue would be getting it to curve enough but even when I feel like I'm putting a half ass spin on it, it ends up going from the right edge to the left gutter.
How do I put a weaker curve on it?
