Bowling/Getting more Revs

Question
I throw a 15# Resurgence and a 15# Gravity Shift. I would like to increase more revs with both balls. What is the proper way to increase revs?

Answer
To increase revs, you will need to increase the strength of your release.  If you can video your release, you need to see how far below the equator of the ball your fingers are at the start of your release.  The more beneath the equator you can get the fingers, the more revs you can creat.  Be carefull not to "hit" up on the ball and try to lift the ball too much.  Keep the fingers firm and get your hand through the ball.  Let it roll off of your hand.

Good luck,
Chip
