Product Description

Product Description

You could learn to ten-pin bowl by spending hours at the bowling money, paying high equipment-rental fees - or you could train with this expert author who will 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 balancing techniques. Most important is the section on choosing the right ball for you - getting the proper fit and grip, as well as gloves, wrist support and shoes.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Good Starting Foundation, 5 Dec 2002
A well presented title,it has excellent Photographs and the diagrams are clear and easy to understand. If you have just started Ten Pin bowling there is a multitude of information to digest, obviously how in depth you wish to go is relevant to your own personal expectations and how much you wish to practice.
I have read a fair number of titles on Ten pin bowling and this particular book covers a wide range of the skills needed to raise your game from that of the "Childrens Party" participant to that of a person with a good basic overall knowledge of the sport.
There are different sections in the book that deal with Pre-shot routines,different hand releases,starting position and the targeting of spares. Along with chapters on Bowling equipment and a glossary of the various terms and language of Ten Pin Bowling.
Overall a well presented and knowledgeable title for those Just begining in the sport who wish to improve their game.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for all ages, 16 Nov 2001
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bowling for Beginners: Simple Steps to Strikes and Spares (Hardcover)
It doesn't matter if you are a beginner bowler or "an expert" anyone can learn something new from this book. Well written and to the point it truely gives concrete steps to help you be a better bowler. This is a book appropriate for all ages. My children and I all use the techniques Don talks about in the book. It has improved our games all around. I highly recommend it to anyone who loves bowling.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for beginning bowler and teenagers, 13 Mar 2007
By Tyrone A. Roberson "Tyrone A. Roberson" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bowling for Beginners: Simple Steps to Strikes and Spares (Paperback)
There is some really good information in this book for beginning bowlers; however I recommend it for teenagers wanting to get into the sport. The author and photographer did a good job of putting a lot of photos in the book to demonstrate their points. I would give this book to a kid or teen wanting to get into the sport. If you are an adult wanting to try the sport or looking for fundamental advice then buys Bowling Fundamentals, you'll be happy you did.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Starter Book, 24 Oct 2005
By H. Gonzalez - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Bowling for Beginners: Simple Steps to Strikes and Spares (Paperback)
This book will tell you all the basics of Bowling. It was very instructive with graphics that helped explain some of the terminology that is not readly understood. I recommend it for anyone thinking about the sport to those already playing (like myself). It helped me with understanding the sport better.
