Bowling For Beginners: Simple Steps to Strikes & Spares

by Don Nace, Bruce Curtis (Photographer)

You could learn to bowl by spending hours at the bowling alley, paying high equipment rental fees--or you could train with an expert who'll teach you simple, one-at-a-time techniques. Start by getting acquainted with the lane, the pins, and the ball. Learn scorekeeping and rules, as well as tips on warmup exercises and balance techniques. Most important is the section on choosing the right ball for you--getting the proper fit and grip, as well as gloves, wrist supports, and shoes. Then comes the special Four-Step approach that takes you through the disciplines of Setup, Stance, Release, and Follow-through. With the tactics section, you'll master strikes and spares, target pins, straight shots and hook shots, and troubleshoot your mistakes.
