Avoid becoming a mechanical bowler trying to steer your deliveries to the pocket by reducing tension in your arm, neck, shoulders, and leg muscles.
Any tension can make it difficult retain a continuous and fluid bowling motion each time you bowl.
Strive to reach the level of swing freedom of movement and, instead, rely on the forces of gravity to assist you in swinging the ball.
Begin by using a loose and free backswing.
Avoid grabbing your bowling ball at the top of your backswing and hurrying your forward swing in anticipation of making a good shot.
Establish a consistent overall swing motion which helps regulate your approach tempo.
Maintain consistent gripping pressure on your bowling ball and do not force your swing and release.
Being realistic, you likely cannot expect to go from being a muscled and tense bowler with a controlled swing to a completely “free swinger” with your bowling ball.
You can, nevertheless, use an effortless swing motion so your ball speed control improves. So will your ball skid distance and so will your overall ball reaction improve.
To tie things together regarding smooth movements, work on attaining smooth steps without digging into the approach floor and tensing your leg muscles. Once your steps match your swing tempo, you will begin to make consistent shots. Matching the tempo and looseness of your steps to your swing is not a concept. Relax your mind and body and then bowl.
