- Sparing is an integral part of the game, using the
three six nine spare system is an easy way to help
you make spares consistently, throwing a straight ball
at single pins is a far more reliable than using a hook
ball.
- Reading a lane condition is critical when trying to
shape the ball on the lane, make the best use of practice
and put the ball down in different places to help you
understand the condition and select the right shot.
- It’s essential to have a relaxed grip on the ball.
Relax your grip more and more until it feels like you’re
barely hanging onto the ball. This will help you get over
any fear of dropping the ball.
- Balance is one of the essential skill. Being balanced
‘at the line’ is the key to power and control in your release.
The secret is to remember to slide into a deep knee bend on your
last step.
