A word from
the President

Improving your bowling technique can make the game even more enjoyable and help you achieve higher scores.

Here are some tips to get you started:

  1. Choose the Right Ball: Make sure the ball fits your hand comfortably and isn’t too heavy. A good rule of thumb is to use a ball that is about 10% of your body weight.

  2. Proper Stance and Approach:

    • Stance: Stand with your feet shoulder-width apart, knees slightly bent, and hold the ball at waist height.

    • Approach: Use the four-step approach. Start with your dominant foot and take four steps towards the foul line, swinging the ball smoothly.

  3. Focus on Your Release:

    • Release: Let go of the ball smoothly, aiming for a straight arm swing. Your hand should be in a handshake position at release.

    • Follow-Through: Continue your arm motion upwards after releasing the ball, pointing towards your target.

  4. Targeting: Use the arrows on the lane to aim your shots. Start by aiming for the second arrow from the gutter on your dominant side.

  5. Practice Consistently: Regular practice helps you refine your technique and build muscle memory. Try to practice different shots and adjust your approach based on lane conditions.

  6. Watch and Learn: Observe professional bowlers and learn from their techniques. You can find many helpful tutorials online, like this YouTube video on improving your accuracy and targeting1.

  7. Stay Relaxed and Confident: Keep a positive attitude and stay relaxed. Confidence in your approach and delivery can significantly improve your performance.

Do you have any specific areas of your game that you’d like to focus on improving?
