Product Description
Learning to bowl has never been easier--or more fun--than with Bowling Fundamentals. Students will enjoy using this resource because they will learn by doing, spending less time reading and more time on the lanes. With simple instructions and accompanying photographs, this book makes it easy to teach students to bowl. Bowling Fundamentals begins by teaching students about the proper grip and stance. These chapters are followed by instructions on footwork, arm swing, timing, and release. Chapters also are devoted to hitting the pocket and mastering left and right side spares. Finally, readers will get specific information on league bowling. Writer Michelle Mullen won four national titles including one major as well as nine regional titles in the Professional Womens Bowling Association and has coached bowlers of all skill levels for more than 16 years. Her personal and professional experiences allow her to understand clearly what bowlers need and how to help them achieve success.

Coach's Comment August 17, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
This book has been extremely helpful to my High School bowling team. The text is clearly written and user friendly. The teenagers on my team understand what they have read and can quickly apply it on the lanes. This has been the most easily understood book on bowling that I have read. The language used by Michelle Mullen is straightforward and simple. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to either learn or strengthen their game.
 Helpful Book November 8, 2007

If you've never been taught the basics of bowling and want to brush up and improve your scores, or if you are a beginner, this book is worth reading. The book is pretty short and it is an easy read, although the author is a bit repetative at times. It has easy to follow diagrams that also are helpful. I average in the low 200's and I was able to pick up a few tips that have enabled me to become more consistent.
The Most Informative Bowling Book Available March 12, 2007
12 out of 12 found this review helpful
I ordered three books on bowling and this one by Michelle Mullen is the best of the three. After reading this book I went out and shot games of 199 and 200+, it's the truth. If you want to improve your game or are looking for some good advice then definitely buy this book. I don't recommend buying "From Gutter balls to Strikes" because the author doesn't know how to write a book. He claims to provide you with 101 of the most common mistakes but for the most part it's not good advice. Stick with "Bowling Fundamentals" and you will be fine.
Excellent explanation of the geometry of the game November 3, 2006

This is a very good book for beginning bowlers. Detailed charts explain how to adjust the starting position to correct missed shots. There is also a very explanation of the importance of walking a straight line to maintain a correct angle. There are also helpful tips on timing, form, etc. and a chapter on understanding scoring and league terminology.
Great reading must for the starter February 23, 2006

This is a great book for both the beginner bowler and a great review for the bowler wanting to increase score. A must read helps a bowler get rid of bad habit that many bowlers pick up over the course of a season of bowling.
