Years ago, I had lunch with Mark and suggested he become the coach for this generation. Apparently, he has gone beyond that as he has become THE COACH for all generations. Solid interview and look forward to part two. Thank you, Craig, for doing an outstanding job.
He's a phenomenal coach and that ability to speak on every level is so valuable.
Great video, I could listen to Mark speak bowling all day
We're right there with you. He's entertaining and so full of knowledge.
Mark is a great coach and person. both my boys had 2 lessons with him and took them to the next level.
This was a great interview, he is fascinating to hear. I can't wait for the next one.
I'm not 2 handed, just here because I think Mark is awesome
He really is. thank you for tuning in
Me too.
Sorry to hear about one of your hands 😉
Come over to the dark side
Box borders for bowling fundamentals: Consistency, timing, balance, and accuracy.
I think the physical core biomechanics is timing and balance.
If the timing and balance is good there will be greater success in accuracy.
With good physical mechanics than consistency comes about with practice, lane and equipment knowledge, and mental strength.
Mark is my coach. He’s amazing!
Mark Baker is SPOT ON regarding to where our society has gone when making the comment about guys his age whining about everything and the hate for 2-handed bowling. I purchased the videos he just released and they are great. The ONLY thing I would have liked to have seen is something on drills for fundamentals for both 1 and 2 handed bowling.
Coaching is so much about how you relate to others. And how vested you are in coaching. In one roll of the ball, Mark pinpointed my issues, and he focused on those. It made a "marked" difference (no pun intended). CZcams is for anyone with an opinion. Looking for the golden ticket. It's unfortunate that some feel that's enough. Personally, I'm looking for substance. So many videos and so many opinions on how to accomplish most everything. There will never be a substitute for hard work. Over time, that'll give you the most long-lasting results.
Haven't yet got the video but thats my next thing got the book and baker box information and yes mark you are known east of the Mississippi im in jersey and definitely ur name is out here too
Great video gentleman!!! fun to watch you both.. coaching and growing youth bowling has been fun!
Thanks Phil! Appreciate the support!
I would love to hear his opinion on whether or not the game will have to change to adapt to the 2h style. I would expect to see oil volumes increase and possibly the return and standardization of the heavier pins. To me, if something doesn't change, the game will lose a lot of appeal as 2h will make it "too easy" (as the candlepin folks already say 10 pin is).
Great questions and thoughts. I think it will have to happen as well. Think of things in terms of golf. When new technology in drivers gave players an extra 50+ yards of carry course design had to adapt as well
Consistency, timing, balance, and accuracy. Seems obvious once you think about it.
Mark Baker is a great coach. I read his book years ago. Issue is somethings he says or tries to articulate to an average bowler does not make a lot of sense. Even myself bowling for 40 plus years I sometimes hear some of the things he says, I am like what ?? 😂
Is there a link to his coaching videos?
They are in the description! At the very top!
👋
Where do you get the mark baker dvd at?? #Virtuebowling
They were sold by Pro Shops and distributors at the time that they were released. Not sure anyone would still have any today.

I wish i had the ability to practice 100 games a week
Its tough to find the time, stamina, or money but it really does take comittment to get to that top level.
Definitely does. Maybe in a few years, life will give me the opportunity to practice more. Want to get to a 200 average at league. But the pattern is not an easy one for me.
100 games a week would cost like $500 a week lol
Yeah that's tough to do at full price for sure
Change the title of this video haha.
60$ an hour? That's more expensive than golf...
