The Greatest Bowling Shot Of All Time

Which is the greatest bowling shot of all time you have ever witnessed?

The right answer should be the last super good shot you rolled.

Regardless of your skill level or experience level, the best shot you ever made is the best shot of all time.

Because you have made a personal best delivery where everything you did from the first step on your approach to the final result when your bowling ball contacted the pins, the best shot is your best shot.

Since you can only perform one shot at a time when bowling, then all you need think about are the couple of keys to make a good approach and delivery. Once the ball has left your hand, all you can do is watch the result.

Your job lasts perhaps 2 or 3 seconds, the total elapsed time it takes to walk to the foul line and deliver your ball.

Since it is a relatively short amount of time to make one shot, then it should not be too hard to condition yourself to focus on making a good shot and think of nothing else while on the approach.

Avoid trying to rush your steps beyond your normal walking pace.

Avoid trying to force your release in an effort to “put more stuff” on the ball.

Go through your usual routine when taking your stance position, make a good, smooth first step and allow yourself the freedom to swing your ball without arm tension and without overpowering your release.



Maintaining good balance during your approach and delivery is critical in good shotmaking.

If you wish to make a series of good shots to record a good game score, then focus on making one good shot, then another, and so on.

Learning how to make one good bowling shot at a time is a strategy all accomplished bowlers use and is a time-tested and proven one.

So if asked which was the greatest bowling shot of all time, answer the last one you delivered in competition.
