Great Book to Start or Review Your Game
By Angel
As a youth bowling coordinator, there are some things I repeat week in and week out. Finally in one place, I can point my kids to a single source and say, "Read this."
While no book will fully replace a great pro shop relationship and in-person bowling lessons, "Bowling Fundamentals" by Michelle Mullen starts out simply and gets deeper as it goes along. From picking up the ball and explaining ball fit to practice techniques to spare conversions and more, Mullen covers everything that a beginning bowler needs and an intermediate bowler needs reminding of.
She gives phenomenal practice drills and offers encouragement for readers to stick with new techniques.
Pictures are clear and complement the written material--from bowler stances to entry angles and pin deflection.
Special examples that deviate from the norm, such as youngsters and seniors, are mentioned including often overlooked options such as plastic bowling balls or additional gripping holes.
As a second edition, she updates where technology has evolved including improvements in bowler's tape and various ways to take the lane out of play for spares. Long-held edicts changed by technology are dispelled and backed up with photos.
Mullen is a former pro bowler, a pro shop driller, a bowling coach (both a Gold level coach and a coach for Team USA), and so she sees each aspect from multiple perspectives and shares her insight in clear detail. I find myself going back regularly to passages that help get my approach back in synch.
I will gladly encourage my bowlers to read this book...once I'm done reading it again.

Not Just for Beginners
By Mike Meagher
At first glance Bowling Fundamentals, Second Edition would appear to be an excellent book for the beginning bowler. This is absolutely correct. However, if you are and advanced bowler don’t think this book has nothing to offer you. It has a wealth of knowledge and insight that anyone, at any level in their bowling career, can use and appreciate to help them.
What is excellent about this book is the way the chapters are laid out in a systematic way. The beginning chapters feature content, photographs, and illustrations that are designed to help the vast majority of novice and beginning bowlers. Each succeeding chapter builds on lessons in the prior chapters, which in my opinion; make this book an excellent tool and resource for bowlers of all levels.
The book starts out with one of the most important parts of bowling, but often the part that the beginning bowler thinks about the least, bowling ball fit. Anyone who reads this will understand the vital role that bowling ball fit plays in bowling your best. Each succeeding chapter builds on this in a step by step manner addressing ball fit, ball types, stance, approach and timing, finish, arm swing, finish position, and release, just to name a few highlights. A lot of excellent information is presented. So much so that you will find yourself going over these sections again and again, depending on what part of your game you are working on.
Learning how to actually deliver the ball is only half the battle in bowling. There is a little something between you and the pins and that is the oil on the lane meant to protect the lane but also create an opportunity to increase or decrease difficulty in achieving high scores. Learning the best possible way to play the lane is so important that two chapters are devoted to it. Again, these chapters are for all levels of bowling and even the most experienced bowlers can gain insight from it.
If you have ever been to a bowling establishment, you will know what just happened when you hear a loud roar….someone just bowled a strike, or maybe more than one. That is obviously the goal, knock down all ten pins. But what happens when you don’t knock them down on the first shot? You will have to work and pick up that spare. Spares aren’t as glamorous as strikes, but the key to being a high average bowler is to make spares consistently. Once again, this is such an important part of bowling two chapters are devoted to it. It is one thing to have learned how to bowl correctly, but knowing the proper way to pick up any combination of pins left after the first ball is another highlight in this book.
Finally, the part of the book that hit home for me speaking from personal experience seeing my children, other children, and many adults over the last several years is the chapter on the Mental Game. I think the lessons in this chapter apply to not only bowling, but pretty much any endeavor one could take on. We aren’t perfect, we won’t bowl perfectly, and how we handle it when things don’t go our way will play a big role in how we progress from game to game, week to week, and even year to year. If you are working really hard to raise your average but just can’t seem to get that improvement you desire, I bet the lessons in this chapter may just be the key to helping you get past that hurdle.
Of course this book is an excellent reference book on how to bowl, and I can’t touch on everything, but it doesn’t read like a typical reference book. Yes, there are step by step instructions helping you learn specific things. There are also drills, and stories and anecdotes from the author’s bowling career and coaching career. When I am trying to learn something new, bowling or otherwise, I feel it helps me to have some other context to attach the material other than just do a step by step procedure. In my opinion, this extra material along with the excellent how to bowl better coaching, puts this book over the top and makes it an absolute necessity for anyone who wants to improve their game and have fun while doing it.

Solid information, going way beyond the basics. A delight to read.
By Kcorn
While far from being a pro, my son and I did bowl on a league together for several years and I still bowl whenever opportunity arises. A coach was on hand to give advice and it helped a great deal. So I believe that I know a little about the basics - but Bowling Fundamentals upped my skills significantly (the author notes that it the book is targeted to both recreational and competitive bowlers). While I still have a long way to go before I'd feel comfortable participating in anything more than beginning and possibly some low level intermediate tournaments, I now feel more confident and my scores are higher.
Here's what the book covers as well as some of the strong points:
If you happen to own the first edition of this book, the second edition is updated with newer shooting strategies for spares, including a system that bypasses the necessity of considering lane conditions. That is a huge plus as far as I'm concerned. There's also an added chapter focusing on the "mental game", those patterns of thinking which stand in the way of successful bowling (the author acknowledges that this may be "necessary but not easy".
I found her chapter on the mental game to be crucial for my game, although I'm still working on expanding my comfort zone to different bowling alleys, lanes, and lane conditions. I tend to prefer my favorite bowling centers but have found that it helped to experience different ones. When I returned to my preferred alleys my scores were higher. That was a pleasant surprise. I can't list all of the techniques Mullen covers but some of the mental processes include: channeling focus, visualization scenarios, using the same rituals for picking up the ball and setting a stance, committing to a strategy, etc. Anyone who has watched professionals play has probably seen some instances where they struggle for emotional control and Mullen covers this discipline as well.
I expected the chapters on ball grip, stance, approach and timing, footwork, and finish position to be similar to what I'd read in other books but there were more than a few surprises. I hadn't encountered much info on age and ball fit changes so it was helpful to read about that. It was fascinating to learn about how the units of oil in the middle and outside lanes may be very different for league and tournament play compared to what the average bowler encounters in a typical bowling alley. Mullen addresses the changes needed (some of them counterintuitive) for optimum tournament play. This was very enlightening.
I highly recommend adding this one to any bowler's library.
