Ultimate Pace Secrets goes deep into the bowling action using the results of high motion video analysis from the fastest men on the planet. That information, based on exhaustive years of clinical study and biomechanics, is transformed into usable, workable and successful coaching methods that can help any bowler to bowl faster and more accurately.
Ultimate Pace Secrets completely blows the lid off speed coaching once and for all.
You will find a book revealing everything you need to know about how to complete the drills needed to increase speed and improve accuracy as a bowler.
