During the fourth step the left foot (right-handed bowler) moves forward as the ball arcs back to the bottom of the backswing. the non-bowling arm (left-hand for right-handed bowler) pulls back to aligned with the body approimately hip level.

Make sure the non-bowling foot (slide foot) is plant at the finish position before the ball reaches the release point at the bottom of the swing.

When arching the ball down from the top of the swing keeping the ball close to the body. Do not pull from the top of the swing for it creates release and leverage problems during the release and accuracy is sacrificed.
