The secret is to learn how to bowl from the beginning. Don’t develop bad bowling habits. These habits can lead to not enjoying bowling because you are not improving and possibly feel soreness in your arm, wrist, shoulder. This is because you must allow the bowling ball to do the work. You must guide and set the ball on the proper course down the lane to score well.
BOWLING LESSON ONE - A
We do this by learning the basic four step delivery of the ball. If you are a right hander, step off with the right foot and a the same time pushing in unison with your step. On the second step you allow the ball to start the motion of a pendulum on a clock.
The ball comes down being held in the bowlers right hand and Moves completely in a swing to the rear on your third step. All the while close to your right side. When the ball reaches the completion of the back swing it begins to move forward, continually in a pendulum motion to the point of release. You do not at any time pull the ball forward. Let the ball come forward freely to the point of release on your fourth step.
BOWLING LESSON TWO - A
When you place the ball in your hand placing your inner two fingers and the thumb in the ball. Position your hand like you are shaking hands or carrying a suitcase. The thumb should be pointing to 10:00 o’clock. At the point of release we do not throw the ball down the lane. We roll it. If the ball was square we would throw it.
GENERAL - A
In our next lessons we will talk about where to aim the ball. Everyone right from the beginning wants to roll strikes, but we must first work on how we get to that point. The bowling center has rental shoes and house balls for use. It is OK to start bowling with their equipment, but you will find out later that you might want to have your own personal equipment.
