You could try adjusting the speed of your shot and play the same line, but give it some more loft further down the lane. The combination of the ball landing further down the lane, but with slower landing speed, will give me a different carry but still flush the pocket.

your right about trying to change the angle to the pocket. I coach a high school team and when I see them leaving strong leaves such as the ringing ten pin I move them left. a lateral move usually 1 and 1 will make the 10 fall every time. you know if all your equipment is set up to skid snap (flip) then you might like to try some early rolling drillings if you have speed and revs you'll probably like it



borrow a ball from a friend or plug and redrill an old ball to play with I know I like my stuff to go early and well... last monday I had 1 10 pin leave adjusted off of that and never shot at another one the rest of the night.



as far as 8 pins that is an angle to pocket issue once again move left and you should fix that too



good luck and good bowling dre

Hey give this a try dont change ur line or anything but when u get set with ur delivery open ur pinky finger and ur pointing finger away from ur fingers abt 1 inch or a lil more this will cause the ball to push down the lane a little more and therfore changing entry into the pocket hope this will help ya out it does me and does get rid of that damn 10 pin good luck on the lanes
