While this grip allows for more control of the ball; it can prevent you from rolling a hook. A hook is when the ball runs down the ramp in a curve and has a better chance of hitting the bowling pins. This grip is best for beginners or those using in-house balls that are not specifically tailored to an individuals hands.

This grip is best for more experienced bowlers, who ideally have tailor made bowling balls that fit their hands properly.

This grip is for advanced bowlers, who can easily maneuver the conventional grip and the fingertip grip.

Before releasing the ball, practice your swing a few times to ensure that your grip feels comfortable and consistent.

At the moment your thumb releases the ball, it should be pointing towards the bowling pins.
