Question
I have been having problems with my acuracy. It seems when i go to release the ball just for a split second Iam not seeing where the ball goes which is killing my game why am i doing this and what can be done to help me i like to see where the ball is going its just that for the last month i have been doing this. Any advice would be great and thanks for your time.


Answer
It could be that you are trying to "hit" the ball way too much.  This will cause the head to move and make it hard to watch the ball through the target area.  Make sure you try to stay down at the foul line and pose or post your finish position.  Also just try to roll the ball and dont work so hard to try and hook it.  It doesnt matter how many revs we put on the ball if we dont know where it is going.

Good luck,
Chip
