Question from Facebook:
Q - I can't get my speed up more than 13 mph. I've tried more backswing, faster approach, even using lots of power behind it. It just doesn't get any faster. Any tips? From Matthew Flores
A - There are several ways to create ball speed, the easiest being taking faster steps to the line. Getting your body moving faster will create more momentum behind the ball once it leaves your hand. However, you’ve tried this and it isn’t working for you.
The most likely reason that you can’t create more ball speed is because your swing is too muscled. When you try to throw the ball harder, you actually can accomplish the opposite. Much like in golf when you try to crush the ball, your swing speed will drop, where if you swing nice and easy, you relax your arms and your swing speed increases.
In bowling, you need to let gravity do the work for you. Let the ball swing your arm, not the opposite. Doing this will relax the muscles in your arm, freeing up your swing to create more ball speed.
