Notapoet: Thanks for the tips! Maybe she could be a great bowler someday. Of course, that would mean she would have to follow some direction.... I'm about to post about that!

Nice post.  I'm glad this category has drawn people writing about more than the front of the sports page sports.  I used to be an avid bowler myself.  In regards to the Baby Bunny's ball taking a late left turn -- if she's a righty she may be developing a natural hook.  This is not a bad thing once a bowler learns to compensate for the break and practices placement and control.  If you ever watch pro bowling, or just observe very good bowlers, you will notice that a majority of them have big sharp-breaking hooks.  It's a characteristic of high average bowlers, this right to left break for right-handers.  If, however, she is left handed the natural break would be from left to right.  Hooks usually involve some wrist snap at the release point, so check her hand position as she releases the ball to figure what is happening.
