Question
Hello,
   I need help getting the 10 pin. I'm what I would call a strong tweener I guess. I put a lot of rev on the ball, and my ball speed is a little faster than average. I fall somewhere between a cranker and a tweener. Anyway I can't figure out how to flatten my hand out in order to get the 10 pin. I put enough revs on the ball that sometimes even a plastic ball will take off and miss the ten. It helps me a lot if there is something I can imagine while releasing the ball for the ten. For example when I throw my strike ball I imagine my hand passing over my mark which helps me be more accurate. Any ideas?
 Thanks,

Answer
I guess you have a plastic spare ball.
Try pointing your thumb straight up all the way thru the release.Also open up your pinkie to counter your pointing finger.This will take 50% or better of your fingers out of the shot.DON'T CUT THE FOLLOW THRU SHORT.
TRY THIS. IF IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ENOUGH,CONTACT ME AND WE WILL TRY ANOTHER WAY.
