Bowl Faster, Quicker, and Accurately

We show you how to bowl faster.

If you are a pretty good bowler with a good lineup, form and pace it can become difficult to speed up your ball and bowl straighter and accurately. We can help with this rut that many good bowlers have found themselves in. Action and weight transfer have a lot to do with this dilemma. It is a hard task to teach a player how to bowl straight and fast, sometimes it just comes from knowing your equipment and your own comfort zones. With our help and some practice, you will be bowling the ball with more speed and straighter than you have before. When you bowl faster, you can acheive higher scores.

Perfecting your run up can be very useful in bowling faster. Your run up is where the whole shot you are about to take starts. If your run up needs work then you should start there. When we set up mentally and have a feeling for the ball that we are using, the visualization comes next and is very important to your shot. If you can make your mental visualizations and your actions match, the speed will come after some practice and the changing of a few key elements.

Your form is very important to master for speed and accuracy also. When you release your ball, remember to tuck the opposite arm as your bowling arm into your waist some. You should feel comfortable with this action before you follow through, otherwise you will throw off the whole stance and release, causing your mental visualization to become off and interrupted. The follow through is just as important to speed of the ball as your release is.

Learn to bowl quicker and more accurately, and you will win more games.

Taking more or less steps to the foul line can adjust your game play probably more than you realize. Practicing an added step seemed to work pretty well for me once I became used to it. The added step felt awkward and odd at first but I was able to gain the speed that I was lacking without trying so hard or getting a sick hook instead of a straight ball. Speed and accuracy are the two hardest skills to master when bowling for strikes. Don’t get discouraged. Just keep trying different combinations of form, release and angle.

All of these variables could help you with your hook, speed, accuracy and form, but one of the biggest tips that one bowler could give to another is to learn how to adjust your game to the oil patterns on the lane. You should learn to control the speed of your bowling ball. If there seems to be lots of oil on the lane you may want to go for good hooks. Speed and oil are unpredictable and can cause a good player to bowl badly if they do not know how to use the oil to their advantage. Too much oil will cause the ball to become uncontrolled during speed throws. Consistently hitting your marks and having to adjust your position every so often is the best bet with an oily lane for more accuracy.

Practice is needed to master bowling quickly.

Just remember, when you are learning to bowl for speed and accuracy, all of these actions should be adjusted slightly for different outcomes. When you see a pattern evolve from your slight adjustments get comfortable with them one by one and put them together to produce the speed. All in all make sure you have good form and that your arm comes over high and you follow through straight even after the release. Always remember to keep your head up and look at where you intend your ball to go.

If you practice these tips and learn your ball and oil ratios, you will be bowling faster in no time. Practice is the only way to turn a good bowler into a fantastic bowler, the difference between the two is how much more control one has over their ball and form.
