A beautiful and professional bowling game is based on fundamental principles, adherence to which is one of the components of success. Having firmly mastered the basic skills, the player, based on them, can develop his own unique style of play and become a high-class professional.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a ball that sways back and forth freely and comfortably. Defining a ball that is too light is easy: you will feel like you can throw it far. A very heavy ball will force you to lower your shoulder while swinging and bend your arm at the wrist. When swinging the ball, use the principle of the pendulum, which is that the arm and the ball must have the greatest energy at the lowest point of the trajectory. Standing in the starting position, swing back and forth, then point your hand down and make a throw. The reverse swing should be done with a straight arm from waist to shoulder.
Step 2
Take the optimal number of steps when making the pass. They should be simple from heel to toe. Beginners are encouraged to stop at four steps. The fifth step is usually added by experienced players. Make the first step as short as possible. The last one, which includes sliding, should be the longest. The body weight for stopping should be transferred to the toe. Start with your right foot and count to four to maintain your tempo. You need to ensure that the step and swing merge into a continuous chain of movements.
Step 3
Concentrate on taking steps and swing in sync. Use the power of your steps to transfer all the energy of the motion to the ball as it is launched onto the track. To do this, swing it with a large amplitude so that at the penultimate step it goes back as much as possible. While swinging back, take the first three steps, and on the last, your hand, swinging the ball, and the sliding leg should move forward in sync. Release the ball when the slide comes to an end.
Step 4
Tilt your upper body forward 15 degrees and bend the knee of your skating leg on the last step so that the distance from the ball to the ankle is 2.5 to 5 centimeters when throwing. To maintain balance during the throw, the middle of the chest should be located above the knee of the sliding leg. During the approach, the gaze should be focused on the target, and the free hand should be extended to the side.
Step 5
Choose the correct angle of the throw to keep the ball on its intended trajectory. Point it at an angle from right to left between pins 1 and 3. Use the second arrow on the right as a sight. This will increase the chances of a strike. The thumb must be removed first from the ball. Train the full completion of the throw: after launching the ball, the hand, without deviating to the sides, should rise straight to shoulder level or slightly higher.
