Another problem 
Hi guys. Id describe my self as being a pretty raw leggie although iv been bowling it since the age of about 12/13 (now 22) because iv never really been coached, iv always just run up and spun it hard with some decent results. Its only really this year that iv been pulling my action apart with the video camera. Although my basic check points are good (with a few bad habits i.e front foot goes along way across the wicket before delivery and slightly bent front knee) my follow through seemed to be the area needing most work.
Problem is, trying to get the back leg driving through (even after weeks of practice) has almost wrecked my bowling, Look at all top bowlers and they all have a good follow through. But on video when i try it, the leg almost comes through with the bowling arm, opening my chest early and cause me to drag it down short mostly and hard to pitch it on leg stump when needed.
Looking very closely at bowler like Warne and Smith, most of the leg follow through comes after the ball is released (the ball is a good metre out of leaving the hand and the back foot is still trailing behind the front knee slightly.
Seems i am almost kicking the leg through too fast. Today i bowled with out even thinking about my action and bolwed ok but not where i want it to be. Any thoughts?
