A Bowling Swing Tip

By: bowlingball.com, 10/12/16

If you are searching for a bowling swing tip, clean up your swing motion. Pure your swing.

Get back to basics and think of a fluid, swing motion with little or no force from your hand or bowling arm.

Work on the beginning of your swing cycle first.

If you use a “pushaway” technique to get your swing started, do it in a smooth and continuous movement and trigger the movement with your first step if you use a five step approach.

Get your ball into your swing quickly with no muscle tension. Avoid holding your bowling ball from dropping down into the backswing arc freely and swiftly.

Once your swing is moving to the top of your backswing, avoid grabbing at the ball with your hand in anticipation of forcing your downswing and trying to hurry your release.

If you are able to, pause at the top of your backswing for a split second before allowing your swing to fall into the forward swing arc.

During your forward swing movement, accelerate your swing slightly all the way to the completion of your full swing arc and follow-through movement.

Pure out your swing by imagining a fluid and loose swing motion so you can focus on a precise and consistent release technique regardless if you are a new bowler or a top tier player.

A reliable technique which produces a fluid swing movement is to maintain consistent gripping pressure with your bowling hand on your bowling ball. Do so from the moment you initiate your swing movement to the time you release your bowling ball.

If you think in terms of achieving an effortless swing motion, your speed control improves as will your ball reaction because your release will become reliable and consistent.

In short, you will develop improved feel of your bowling ball and trigger your release at the same moment relative to the bottom of your forward swing cycle.

If you have heard of the term “trust your swing”, then you likely understand that it becomes counter-productive to guide or steer your swing and to force your release.

Trust your release by using this overall, effortless swing motion when you bowl on challenging lane conditions (or any lane conditions) and develop your game to compete with your opponents effectively.

Your swing is the thing! Your swing is your bowling ball delivery system. Make certain your swing tempo is consistent from shot to shot. Your swing path during your forward swing cycle should match the intended direction you wish for your ball to travel toward your target once the ball leaves your hand. Swing tempo and swing direction, therefore, are two major components of a winning swing motion.
