There are no big breakthrough secrets about the game of bowling that are going to be revealed here. There are plenty of books, e-books, bloggers and self-proclaimed experts claiming to have esoteric info to share with you for a price.

The simple fact is that sometimes we're so focused on trying to improve at something that we miss the most obvious solutions. There's no mystery to getting better at bowling. The easiest and most readily available way is to hang out with better bowlers and learn from them.

First things first. Are you in a bowling league or do you just casually bowl with friends and family? If you're in the latter group, then your first step is to join a league.

The second step is to keep your mind in the game. Now bowling in a league means lots of idle time between frames while your teammates take their turn on the lane. Some see that as down time to socialize with others.

It doesn't matter if you are a pro bowler, or a beginner. No matter where you fit in with the bowlers, everyone is impressed by strikes. This can lead to taking the focus off of other parts of the game and putting the focus on just one area of expertise. Strikes are great but you also need to be proficient in picking up those spares too.

When the focus is on how many X's you can chalk up you then find yourselves concentrating on only that phase of the game and in many cases your improvement in the game of bowling is slowed or impaired. Actually, those bowlers who work more on the accuracy of their spare delivery are the ones who will also be improving most in throwing those strikes too.

It does not take long for those “strike chasers” to learn that those strikes are really just one part of the game. He soon realizes that he needs to mix things up by varying his bowling tactics. Once he learns this he will be able to learn to be a better bowler.

Most often, bowling schools start the basic lessons of proper braking and sliding. It is an effective method to learn the basics of footwork. This is also the time to learn how to work properly with your shoes. After this basic lesson, the instructor teaches proper ball handling and releasing.

Try to master these skills because you will only improve once you perfected the basics. The intermediate skills will follow naturally afterwards.

Just like any sportswear or equipment, your bowling shoes also require proper care in order to prolong its lifespan and keep it always in top condition so it would be reliable when worn.

Taking care of your bowling shoes is easy and affordable with some simple helpful tips.

Half-way through the third and final game, a high-roller on the competing team saw my frustration and offered a well-intended observation. “I hate to say anything, but all night you've been dropping your shoulder and not following through.” I couldn't believe it! It was a total newbie mistake. I closed my eyes, took a deep breath and said: “Now you tell me!”

His reply was a real eye-opener. He said he never says anything because he learned to bowl from his dad, who would critique his game and give him pointers. He said it drove him nuts to the point that he almost quit the sport a number of times.

Now I had been bowling in the same league with this fellow for six years or more. I thought we had become pretty good buds, but I had no idea why he never uttered a comment or helpful hint. I figured he saw me as the competition and wanted to keep his edge. Turns out he was being considerate. He thought I'd be insulted.

Since then, he has become my go-to guy when I'm having a bad night. He still doesn't offer advice to anyone else. But I get all the help I need simply because I let him know what a high value I place on anything he can offer.

Life and becoming a better bowler can be so simple sometimes
