Inside Line Tips
PREPARATION:
The bowling season is upon us. Are you ready? You may or may not have been bowling all summer. If you have not then it may be a good idea to get in and roll a few frames to determine if you are ready. We have a few suggestions of what to look for and here they are:
| 1.
|
Check the fit of your ball - if you haven't bowled much over the summer chances are your fingers and thumb will be a little smaller than when you finished last spring. You may even need to see your pro shop operator in some cases. | |
| 2.
|
Next lets check our shoes - depending on where you stored your shoes they may need a little maintenance as well. Make sure they did not accumulate any moisture while not in use. A damp shoe will NOT slide! | |
| 3.
|
It is also a good idea to check the approach before you attempt to roll a ball. Most bowling centers refinish lanes and approaches in the off season. The amount of slide you get may be radically differant than you are expecting. | |
| 4.
|
Finally, start out slow. Work up to full speed gradually as you reaquaint yourself with your surroundings. Warm up some of those muscles that you may not have used for a while. |
If you follow some of these suggestions you may have a much better time on the first night. Good Luck!
