Summary: By Bowlers For Bowlers
Review: Finally a bowling book for bowlers that isn"t just for beginners. Yes, basics are covered, but in the context of someone trying to "get to that next level". Not only this, but these authors can write in an interessting manner, making reading it fun. I would recommend this book for anyone wanting to improve there game, or just understand bowling

Summary: read,think through and perform
Review: From my perspective, I found the book very good. I am around 140, I have been bowling for around 5 months, the book contains a lot of useful information. From techniques,releases and the mental game, the book covers a lot of ground. Slightly out of date in regards to the equipment, but otherwise you could do yourself a favour if you are a bowler anywhere between 100 - 190 put it on your bedside table. The principles behind this sport have not changed, and with that I would strongly recommend this book. One main criticism is that there aren't very many pictures in relation to hand release, and the book is in black and white only. Overall, worth getting. If you only learn or understand one point or exercise from this book, it will be money well spent.

Summary: Very helpful!
Review: I bought this book because of an Amazon.com coupon I receivedand I don't regret the purchase. I haven't finished reading the bookand it has already improved how I think about bowling and how I deliver the ball. I found the tips useful and almost immediately began sharing the book with others on my bowling team who also benefit from the information. I've looked at other bowling books and couldn't get past the opening pages. More illustrations could have been useful, but I appreciate the fact that information for us lefties is pretty well integrated into alternating chapters. It's hard to get good lefty information and having one of the authors be a lefty was a good move. I read one review that stated that the information was dated and I have to disagree. As a very new bowler--been at it for just a year--I've used the information to begin to bowl more consistently at 200 or better at least one or more games during our league matches. That, for me, makes the information timeless.

Summary: Doesnt contain enough hints and tips!
Review: I found this book a very boring read, it didnt tell me what I wanted to know and it was presented in a very dull way. I dont think I have learned anything from this book. At the same time I bought Bowling strikes and couldnt put it down!

Summary: Trial and Error
Review: The basic message was "trial and error" which, while it may be true, gives the reader no foundation upon which to build. Over and over, the authors related how professionals might approach a certain shot but that we needed to use trial and error to find how we should hit it, rather than to give some solid principle to begin to build our own process.

Summary: It can add pins to your game
Review: There are some very good suggestions for intermediate bowlers in this book. It is really a series of articles somewhat well strung together into a book on improving your game.

I haven't missed a 10 or 7 pin leave since I read this book and implemented the suggestions. That had added up to 12 pins from just that one frame!

If you bowl 150-185, read the book. You are leaving open frames and this book can help.
