Well today I thought that I'd ad my 2 cents in and give you are few pointers on increasing your strikes and throwing the ball properly. Personally I've never bowled a perfect 300 game but I have bowled 247, 267, 254 and 277 many times over my 20 years bowling that's why I'm a Jack of all trades bowler, not quite professional but good enough to know better. My biggest problem is not the perfect game but the nervousness that I feel when I'm down to the last 2 or 3 strikes. I always screw it up and fall short.
So for those who've never bowled over 200 or 277 I would say that I'm very qualified to give some pointers. The first and main pointer that I can talk about is while you are on the approach, lined up with your dots and arrows and properly positioned remember these 2 things.
1. Become one as a clock ticking evenly and in a timely fashion. Stop the jerky movements and yanking the ball down the lane. Yes you will get strikes by slamming the ball into that pocket forcing your powerful ways on the pins but if you want more strikes, consistency and higher overall scores you must do as Bruce Lee says, Be like water, be water and flow with the current of your water which in this case is Bowling.
2. Focus on your release and delivery as much as you focus on everything that comes before it. when you release your ball watch the arrows and dots, not the pins, study the pins before you decide your standing position and once you decide where you need to be keep your eyes there and follow through with your release like a golfer. Even after that ball is gone continually rise your hand toward the center of the pins as the ball flies right in the pocket.
More tips later on... Enjoy your bowling
