Summary: Senee Patimasup
Review: It is really good book. Not like many other bowling book, this book is not just for a beginner. It provides many aspects of the sport (not gmae) of bowling with adequate photographs. The best thing is that it helps me increase my average! =)

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great book for advancing to the next level
Review: Let me first say that this is not a book for beginners. As a "conventional" bowler (read: straight) looking to advance to the next level and develop a hook-style of throwing, I've found this book to be quite useful. The photo-illustrations are very helpful, and instructional dialogue is presented in a clear and sometimes amusing fashion. While it won't give the basics to somebody who's never bowled before, it will help the recreational bowler looking to improve his or her game and increase pin average. While I originally expected a book of just "tips" and "fixes", what I got was a complete book that incorporates the 101 mistakes into the big picture. Nice job.

Summary: Great bowling book
Review: Mike Durbin's book covers many topics from the mental game to the physical game. If you are a beginner or more advanced, there is something in here for you. I found this book very helpful in my game. The ideas presented really work! You should always have a bowling reference book. This is a great idea, something not too big.

Summary: Lots of impovement
Review: Since I have read the book I have thrown my highest series every a 641 and the next highest 550. When I read the part on ball speed and the postioning of the arm my speed has been pretty steady and hitting my mark is a lot eaiser to do. My average is starting to climb, and I will still have by bad days but thinks to this book it is a lot eaiser to handle a bad game.

Summary: Terrific book for anyone who wants to improve
Review: This is a great book because it acts as a personal coach. It will help you correct 101 common problems in bowling. If you think about it, it is a pretty clever book. After all, what do people do often when they are learning the game? Make mistakes! Great book for all levels.

Summary: One Of A Kind, Literally
Review: This is a very good book, and the reason why I say that this is one of a kind is because it is the only book out there that tells you common errors and tells you how to correct them. All the other books just tell you what to do, as if you can't tell a bowling ball from a basketball. The one thing that this book won't do is that it won't help out the people who don't know jack about bowling. But it will help out everyone else. Great book.
