Introduction


Here on this site you will find information that you did not know about, that you can use to improve your game. Because lets face it if you could improve your average by just 10 pins a game wouldn't you have more fun bowling? That's what this site is all about, spreading my years of knowledge to help others enjoy bowling as much as I do, and by doing this hope to grow interest in the sport of bowling. The information alone won't turn you into a pro, only hard work and practice to the tune of 50 to 100 games a week will do that.

Fingertip grip, Video #1

The first video showing how a fingertip grip is better than a conventional or house ball grip.


The house ball

In the first video I use a typical house ball drilled with a conventional grip, and my spare ball, which is a house ball drilled with a fingertip grip. A house ball has no real weight block other than a small piece of counter balance weight at the point where the finger holes will be drilled. Rather than trying to explain that I have created a link to Columbia 300, they have a great graphic of my actual spare ball CLICK HERE. When you get there run your mouse over the ball and you will see what the inside looks like. Here is a link to show you one of my other balls that you will see on future video's so you can get the idea of how far ball technology has come CLICK HERE.

Advances in Bowling

Over the last 20+ years there has been significant advances technology wise to the bowling balls, lane maintenance equipment and scoring computers. The least known by the general public are the changes in lane maintenance and bowling balls. In the early posts I will be covering bowling balls.

The info that I will be exposing about the bowling balls of today will amaze most people who are not regular bowlers.
If you are still using a house ball you are really cheating yourself out of as much as 20 pins or more per game. Because these days there is a huge difference between the house ball and the new balls of today.
