Bowlers use lingo which many outsiders likely have never heard but seem commonplace to experienced bowlers.
Here are several bowling cliches you may have heard around the lanes through the years:
*One good shot at a time…
*Stay down at the line…
*Make your spares…
*Reach up, not out…
*Don’t rush the foul line…
*Don’t squeeze your ball…
*Practice, practice, practice…
*Keep it simple…
*Run it out…
*Trip the four…
*Tilt the seven…
*Hit the beak…
*Make good shots...
You get the idea. Perhaps you have heard of many more cliches commonly used around bowling centers across the country?
It is surprising when we hear or read these cliches a clear picture of what they refer to comes to mind.
In many cases, these terms are meant to remind us what it takes to bowl well.
If you have one or more which are your favorite cliches or slogans, feel free to share them below in the blog section.
It is always fun to read comments from our community friends.
In addition to cliches, we also have slogans and terms frequently used which address everything from understanding bowling balls to the lanes, to pin leaves, and so on. The lingo used in the game can sound very foreign to anyone listening or reading if these people are not bowlers. Bowlers can be creatures of habit and very superstitious and fussy when they pay attention to the details involved with their individual games. If you wish to share your thoughts related to the language heard or used around the bowling centers, we would love to read your comments.
