- Have you ever wondered how you should take your 5-step approach to bowl like most professionals?
In that case, today I’m going to reveal a few secrets that are guaranteed to help you improve your game because this is what separates most professional bowlers from the rest.
The goal for today’s training session is to figure out how and where we are supposed to take the 5 steps on the approach, and finally, with the help of some drills, we will be able to throw a smoother and much better shot by getting our bodies out of the way from the swing.
And yes, I will teach you the double cross-over.
This video is perfect and the best one out there so far that will teach you how to properly do the 5-Step Approach like the professional Bowlers. Cool?

Yes, I used EJ Tacket as it was the closest video I had to a PBA doing the double cross-over. He may not be perfect, but it gets the job done and I'm sure a lot of you like his bowling style and his 5 step approach.
Note: Learning the proper footwork is extremely important if you want to become a better bowler. Most bowlers use the 5 step approach, hence that's what I decided to use in this video.
In the next video, I will teach you all how to improve your spare shooting! I know...crazy, right?

I know I know, before you DESTROY me in the comments for taking too long to post this video. I'm really sorry for taking too long to edit and upload the video.
YES I did RECORD the practice videos during the same week. I'll be honest, I've been doubting my abilities to create good content that you all want to watch and learn from. Plus, honestly I have been struggling to get my ... together.
I LOVE YOU ALL supporters and haters alike.
P.S. "Nah, I'm gonna do this my own way"
Doesn’t matter how long it took. It matters that you did it. Thank you for this great video 🥰
Take all the time you need! I'm glad to see another video. Great content :)
Love the content brother. Looking forward to the next one!
Man don’t stress. I’ve been learning to bowl over the past month and trust me, there is plenty of CZcams content to keep us happy and learning while you take time for yourself.
I've learnt so much. Thank you so much!
nice video !
I use 3, 4, 5, & 6 steps . I use 5 steps more than the others but go to 3 or 4 if I feel 'off' on the 5-step or want to slow down or speed up.
I just choose the one that feels the best timing-wise, so, this drill will especially help me.
thank you for your investing time in us, Hopefully we put into practice what you have shared with us and we can in turn repost how we too have made improvements, Your videos are on point and do dont just keep going!!
Awesome! Hope to receive your success stories soon! 💪🏼

Cheers Sebi
I really enjoyed this video. I will be working on this for sure. By the way, it wasn't too long.
Glad it was helpful!
I find this interesting. I have always tried to end on the same board that I began (ie: no drift). I have been watching a lot of PBA tour players this past year or so, I don't recall them having such a path during their approach as you demonstrate here. I have noticed that EJ Tackett seems to have this approach, but most others appear to me to end on the same board they started. I will have to go back and pay closer attention and assess.
Most pros actually drift A LOT nowadays... And, I am not saying you have to finish the same board you start at. In fact, I would advice against it because you have to clear the way for your swing and release. Re watch the video and look at my tapes.
@@AthleticBowling - yep, I see that. Means I have been doing it all wrong! .. 🙂
I was always taught and have confirmed in my experience that it doesn’t matter if you drift or not. What matters is that your approach is consistent and the same every time, whether you drift or do not drift. It sounds cliche, but once you find what works for you, you just need to consistently repeat it. Very nice video, though.
@@bryanlewis7255 - I would agree with you. It does seem to me that it would be easier to consistently repeat your approach if you didn't drift at all, that way you are starting at the same board you are finishing on. But I'm pretty much a hack bowler anyway, I think I have a lot of other issues to worry about first 🙂
It's more about whatever is working for you. This is just a basis if you are needing help lime myself, Who only takes 3 steps to release
May I ask what bowling ball weight you use? Does it very with the type of ball?
So your local bowling center allows you to put tapes with adhesives on the approach to practice?
My foot work is my biggest problem I am coming back to the game after about 20 yrs so I have been practicing atleast 3 days a week but I also developed even knee pain it has got better. But my for I seen myself fall out of place a few times I am aware that this takes you out of target range
How to I keep from falling off the shot after releasing the ball?
Watch day 2 of the series. I teach you in that video how
I also tried 4 step approach but Iam so accustomed of 5 step approach
Well?? Could you help
I also did the 4 step approach years ago and it helped at times. The only difference is that you just don't use your first step to create momentum or open the hips. Adjust the starting position a little and go from there following the same formula I gave you in this videl
5 board drift left….man I need so much work
I got 3 pieces of tape on the floor before the bowling alley made me stop.
Not sure if you're kidding or not....? lol... if so, why would they? Just ask permission and any friendly staff should allow that so long you don't harm the lanes. (Which a tape will never do)
Hows the bowling witht he left hand assist?
It's not an assist...
@@AthleticBowling ohhhh.... Ohhh my... seriously?
I didn't realized this is allowed in bowling. Heck, I can do that all day!! I'll try that. Looks much easier than bowling the normal way
It's pretty much the typical form of any 2 handed bowler.
@@kevinrussell5099 this is all new to me... saw a few people at the lanes this weekend (first time bowling since 2008 Korea) wouldn't two hand bowlers have their own leagues? I feel like that almost cheating, just spinning a ball down the lane. I'm so confused right now 😂😅
Definitely an assist. Consider it a glorified granny ball
I'm a 3 step bowler. So are you even when you take 5 steps. The ball does NOTHING until the start of your 3rd step. That's why I switched to 3 step from 5 over 20 years ago.
The first 2 steps give you momentum and speed, which in turns adds more speed and ease of movement to your body. It doesn't "do nothing" like you say, but it make sense if you are happy with your speed.
@@AthleticBowling - I have played between 4 and 5 steps and for me I have found that 5 step allows me to better set my "tempo" and keep my tempo consistent.
The first 2 steps in most 5 step are very slow. "Attacking the line" is rushing forward on those first 2 steps but it makes it hard to keep your timing. I still say your first 2 steps are too slow, and the ball is not making a significant move until the very end of step 2. To me, that extra motion is just something else to go wrong. My brother does it too (5 step) and he "stalks the line" more than he rushes the line. He rushes when it's hooking too much.
You have a great swing and delivery. You made an excellent multi-step drill that people will find useful. Good luck!
@@pudgeballroundpants1941 - I guess I use the extra steps in 5 step to get my clock running. I have played competitive golf for over 30 years, and one thing in the golf swing that you don't have is something to set your timing clock. In most ball sports there is something to set your timing clock, like in baseball you have the moving ball coming at you that sets your clock. Humans are absolutely terrible timing instruments and rely on external mechanisms to get their clock started consistently and accurately. To me the extra steps do this for me, something I don't have in a golf swing. In golf I have to try to manufacture that clock in my head first and then use my backswing and back rotation to set the temp timing. In bowling I instead use the first 2 steps. It works for me that way anyway.
wym bruh most people get the ball down at the 2nd step of the 5 step. and at the beginning of the 4 step.
people who use these aproaches have to drop the ball early and then start moving to do three step drill. because every step is important.
to everyone in the comments saying that they use several different aproaches in their game.
literally stop. The only time you should ever use a different aproach is when you are forced to play in front of the ball return and loterally cannot use your main aproach.
This is a game about consistency and swapping aproaches constantly to what will "feel right" will not improve your game.
Oh and sorry to tell you but fixing aproach drills arent what will improve you from 180s to 220s.
Spares are.
You're right about the consistency, but If you pay attention I never said footwork alone will get you to 220.... If you watch again, you'll notice this is a part of a 7 days series.
@@AthleticBowling fair enough, but i also wasnt able to see the full title and saw the 1 w and it cut off, so i thought it was "1 way" or smth stupid like that.
First, E. J., who you showed, does not have a crossover step, he walks straight, drifts left then "jumps" left. That is unique to him.
Second, you assumed that people have a 5 step approach, most bowlers I know have 4 step and even some 3 step.
Third, you assumed that people are throwing inside out. Most bowlers in league throw down and in, so drifting left is not ideal for playing straight from the outside.
But thank you for this tutorial for inside out high rev players.
Perhaps you can follow up with approach teaching for normal strokers playing straight.
no you can safely say that more people use a 5 step.
