Bowling Book Ive Been Reading

[andrewlytton]

In my 1st summer league I avg 154 and wasnt happy, my stepdad let me borrow his bowling book "Bowling: Knowledge Is The Key" By Fred Borden which I think is a pretty old book but anyways I've been studying this book and I'm almost done first half of winter with a 172 avg and its climbing every week. I love this book!!! :)

One of the first books on bowling I had. Good basic information that is still usable today, the book does lack information on how todays modern game is played using the newer balls. But that doesn't mean its information is not valuable.

A couple of newer older ones are Revolutions and Revolutions 2 if you run across them, also checkout Bowling This Month magazine.

Another good book to help your game is, Bowling Execution by John Jowdy. Well illustrated and informative. Good luck.

Yes, BowlVersity section at bowlingball.com is growing all the time with content and some YouTube type videos discussing various areas in bowling ranging from tips to equipment. Although the section is structured for various experience levels, it is sometimes interesting to check out the articles and maybe stumble on something which can help your game?

There have been many bowling books published through the years but not that many recently. Mostly, bowling books do not sell. No demand. Because of this a company like bowlingball.com is trying to present some matrerials to help those in search of information about bowling or about improving aspects of their game.

Bowling Boards is a cool spot because it offers a range of ways to share information and post comments. It is great to read about people rolling honor scores or having success with a new ball, and so on. Bowling is finally a fun place on the internet.
