This is one of the most difficult things to learn how to do automatically, it seems instinctive to bend over when you set down a 16 pound object, but it is very important to keep your back reasonably straight for a consistent delivery.īending your arm at the elbow and swinging it away from your body are main contributors to an inconsistent game. Maintain a moderate approach speed and be aware of your shoulders during delivery. This often happens when you rush your approach. A “dropped” shoulder can send the ball wide every time. This will work providing you don’t have to alter the position of your watch arm too much.įor consistent deliveries, keep your shoulders square to the foul line at all times. Watch the second hand count 4 ticks, then move your eyes to your mark as you begin your approach. It’s not necessarily the extra time that helps, but this gives you a familiar object to concentrate on, and it also improves your “timing”. One thing to do is wear a watch and count to 4.
Distractions, problems at home, school, or work, discomfort (such as tight clothing), & many other things contribute to you losing concentration at that last second. This requires lots of practice (see tip #9).Ĭoncentration is listed first because without it, all of the others will not happen. The idea is for all of these to become automatic so that you don’t have to think about any of them when you start your approach. Any one of these alone is pretty simple, performing all of them at the same time is another story. You’ve probably heard these before, and you will without a doubt hear them again as much as we bowlers like giving advice.
