House rules

Terms of Use

The rules of the shop, in the order you'll run into them.

Last updated: October 8, 2026

Hank the Ball Driller

Every shop has a few rules taped up by the register. Here are mine. Plain talk, no lawyer words.

Before you buy, know this

Who you're dealing with

Whose rules are these, anyway?

Same name on the site, the books and the membership, top to bottom: Hank the Ball Driller.

Questions about any of it: [email protected].

Paying

How do I pay, and who handles the money?

Hotmart, a payment platform, runs the checkout. They process your payment, and at checkout they're the seller of record.

Card, PayPal or Apple Pay all work. You pay whatever price the checkout shows.

Hotmart's got its own terms and privacy policy, too.

Getting your books

What am I allowed to do with the PDF books?

Every book is a PDF. Nothing gets shipped. Hotmart emails you the link, and you can always open your books at consumer.hotmart.com. Log in with the email you bought with.

It's a personal license, for you alone. Read them, print them for yourself. Don't share, resell, upload or copy them for your league buddies.

The membership

How does the membership bill me, and how do I quit?

Members get letters by email: one adjustment a week for your ball or your release, and more. Got a question? Just hit reply.

It starts with 7 days free. Then it's charged every month until you cancel.

Cancel at consumer.hotmart.com. Cancelling stops what's ahead. It doesn't refund months already gone by.

Your body

My thumb and back aren't what they were. Is this safe?

Bowling is physical activity. Before you take on any new exercise, run it by your doctor.

If something hurts, stop right there.

What I teach is general instruction, not medical advice.

Results

Will this add pins to my average?

Maybe, maybe not. Results vary from bowler to bowler.

I don't promise pins, scores or a higher average.

The pictures

Is that really Hank in the pictures?

Me in those pictures? Each one is an illustration.

Who owns what

Can I pass the books around my league?

No. Every book, letter, word and picture belongs to Hank the Ball Driller.

It's all for your own personal use.

Limits

If something goes wrong, how far does your responsibility go?

We're not on the hook for indirect losses, as far as the law allows.

Our total responsibility tops out at what you paid.

None of this takes away rights you have as a consumer under the law.

Changes

Can these rules change after I buy?

They can. When they do, we update this page and the “Last updated” date.

Ask me

Who do I ask if a rule doesn't make sense?

Write to [email protected] and ask it straight.
