Hi I am new to coaching and this is my first student.
I have been coaching her since the beginning of December and the first video was taken Dec 13, the others I took yesterday.
She's a quick learner and very enthusiastic about bowling but sometimes lacks discipline.
Personally I feel like she's lifting the ball to much at the "push away/hinge", we practiced this at the beginning and some progress was made but i feel like it could still be better.
I have been trying to get her third step longer and her fourth step a bit shorter so it's more under her head/body and not slowing her down just before the slide.
Her fourth step also goes to the right instead of in front of her left foot, when I put tape on the approach she can execute the footwork perfectly but as soon as the tape is gone she goes back to the old approach.
When it comes to the release all we have done is getting a better wrist supporter but there is still a lot of work to be done there.
Any tips would be appreciated, maybe you know of any good exercises we could try.
