I bowl orignal right hand hook, but im a natural backup bowler. It's a great way to bowl if u have the right position to place ur ball. if u place it wrong the shot can go wron, its just the same as bowling normaly. even thought im a hook bowler i still use backup, i use it to spare the 10pin and very rarely do i miss 
On my opinion, yes it is a good way to bowl,
Have fun

A 300 has already been bowled by a back up (pretend left hander) bowler.
Maitland bowl(2002 or 2003) by Henry Mather one of the best back up bowlers you will see.

Ros Yendle, one great senior bowler bowls back up, and Ive seen her rack up some high games...
I started off bowling back up, but had Frawley teach me to bowl the other way...

Hi all, There are quite a few good backup bowlers that bowl at Keon Park.
There are a few that bowl in Super League who hold very high averages.
Rodney Kerrison, a fantastic backup bowler, bowled a 300 earlier this year at Keon Park in the centre final for the S.P.C qualifyin, there was also a 299 bowled by Steve Collins a few Tuesdays ago. So Backup bowling can work.
In my opinion (even tho i am a backup bowler) you should stick to how you bowl if you are comfortable with it. Do not let anyone get to you by sayin that you should be bowlin hook instead!

The first 300 game bowled by a woman in Tasmania was rolled by Sally Golding at Moonah in November 1992, she was a back-up bowler who used a 12lb AMF Strikeline and shot it in one of the Monday morning ladies leagues. She is still the only woman to shoot 300 at Moonah to this day.
I've never seen anyone who is lefthanded roll a back-up ball as thier permanent shot, although I bowled in a team in Centre League with a lefty (Paul Lucock) who rolled a back-up ball for a few weeks last season because of the conditions on the left, and he hooked it more than most of the normal righties did. :lol:
