Great book for bowlers of all skill levels. A good place to start for beginners.

Bowling: Steps to Success is excellent for an instructional manual. It’s not necessarily an enjoyable story, but it’s great if you’re looking to improve your game!

I got through the first few chapters but was unimpressed, so I am reading Bowling Execution instead, which I checked out from the library at the same time. But I'll probably give this more of a perusal before I return it.

ETA: Returned it to the library without finishing it. It was okay.

Bowling is serious business. A must-read if you want to become a pro like me. Period.
