Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 1980

Perceptive Bowling is what the serious bowler needs. This was a groundbreaking book when first published in 1980, with a second printing in 1983. Out of print for over two decades, the present printing is from 2011, with corrections and annotations to bring the information into modern perspective. In the first four chapters, the hand, arm, and fit of the ball are thoroughly discussed, followed by a consideration of the release in Chapter 5. In Chapter 6, a reliable targeting system is explained, followed in Chapters 7 and 8 with a discussion of the weight distribution and surface properties of the bowling ball. Chapter 9 deals with how to adapt to many different lane conditions. Chapters 10 and 11 give instructions on how to fit and drill a bowling ball, including insights into the offset thumbhole drilling. A list of Recommended Reading is available, as well. Perceptive Bowling became an international classic, and the lessons, in addition to being historically significant, are useful to serious bowlers today.
