BE the ball....

"don't worry about other bowlers, it's just you and the pins."

[manke]

Use the for f's forget the finesse and fling the f-----!!! Ha Ha

[angel]

Control the ball don't let the ball control you
and remember to throw it like your shaking
someones hand.

[swingset]

Don't over-think technique during game time.

Practice is for drilling in the muscle memory. Game time is for putting it to use, at most focus on one problem area (like staying behind the ball, or focusing on your target), and the rest should happen automatically. When you have more than one thing to "fix" at the approach, you're in trouble.

Don't over think, throw the D*mn ball, and follow through!

[Jubalplow]

I do not know how true it is for everyone, but I remember my old coach always told me not to look at the pins, rather at the arrows, he would always say they are not going anywhere till the ball gets there anyways. Helps me

[fortheloveofbowling]

Always try to start with the angle you are most comfortable with that fits your eye the best. Get comfortable and try to repeat shots and adjust from that. So often we try to do things that we are not capable of repeating.

Like Manke said "If you can't throw good throw hard" Just the opposite of years ago Put fingers in the ball and let it fly.

[rocketman1964]

Roll the ball do not throw it.

[Blomer]

Don't think!

[NotesOfC]

throw your ball, roll your game.

What a lot of others have said, but My Wife and I just say to each other "Beef Stew". See if anybody gets the reference.

Could you be referencing the "Beef Stew" Stewart Williams by any chance?

Watch where the ball exits the pindeck

[Mike White]

Watch where the ball exits the pindeck

That's your favorite?

It should be second or further behind, Watch where your ball enters the pocket.

Wouldn't you expect the ball to exit right of the 8-9, if you just left a bucket?

The ball going into the pins is far more informative, than the ball going out of the pins.

Keep your elbow in and straight to your body

[fordman1]

I have always found that telling a team mate to strike or we will loose the game for sure. Now that always loosens the arm swing.

[Mike White]

Are you referring to the arm swing that releases the ball, or the left hook into the side of your head.

[fordman1]

I guess I should have said 'Just relax" pull the stick out of, Ya need a loose arm swing....

[Goose]

Relax and follow through, I call it Beef Stew, cause of the way Stu Williams releases his ball.

[manke]

Make sure you follow thru.
