The Bowling
Tip
By Mike
Luongo
The tip this week is a reminder that although there are so many
aggressive, high performance bowling balls available, the main component of the
sport is having a sharp game and becoming a good shot maker.
Lane conditions have become very soft and that combination with
today's bowling balls has led to high scoring conditions making the majority of
today's bowlers very complacent about working on their physical
game.
However, the sport of bowling is making a comeback as clan be seen
in some of the newer Sport Bowling Leagues so knowing how to adjust to varying
lane conditions and understanding how to use today's bowling balls is only part
of the equation.
For those bowlers who want to maximize their potential in this
sport, I cannot stress enough the importance of finding a qualified and
certified bowling instructor. Even more preferable, you should work with an
instructor who uses video technology to completely analyze your
game.
The knowledge you gain from a Certified Instructor is knowledge
that will be useful to you and will stay with you throughout your bowling
life.

Instructor, USBC Silver Level Coach and an Advisor-Special Events Assistant with
