Great especially for beginners! 22 July 2010
By J. B. Schliewenz - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book says it's "for dummies" but it's really for the beginner or for parents of a child who wants to get involved in bowling. There is humor, too, which keeps it from being a serious textbook. The tips and advanced areas are helpful for the more seasoned bowlers. This would be a great gift for just about anybody!
