I'm right-handed, throw a straight ball & always
leave the ten pin. How can I change my approach to increase my chances of getting it,
and more strikes?
Steve: Firstly, a straight ball has less
pin action than a hook or curve ball, therefore you need to work on developing a hook
delivery with an "AGGRESSIVE" new
bowling ball, available at our Pro-Shop. You'll need coaching to achieve the desired
result, that will also inform you as how to make subtle hand, foot placement and speed
adjustments to help you get rid of most 10-pin leaves. Remember, however, it's not called
ten-pin bowling for nothing. Grin!
Renee asks:
I enjoy recreational bowling and get pretty good scores. Why would I want to join a league?
Steve: Thanks for your inquiry. Bowling is one
of the few activities that can be enjoyed as both a recreation and a sport. You could
do both - lots of people do, by joining a league, then bowling on the weekends or weeknights
with family and friends.
Because bowling can be played all-year round and literally from
the "cradle to the
grave", it is one of the very rare games that can be played the whole of one's life.
We have had regular bowlers as young as 3 through 99-year-old Ben Sanchez, who bowled
two days a week, but didn't even bowl at all until he was in his mid-80's. Whatever you
decide, decide this - enjoy the game every time you bowl.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR INQUIRY; WE'LL POST THE ANSWER HERE
AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!
