Hello out there in the cyber bowling world. I hope by joining this site, I can share thoughts and information with all of the good and not-so-good bowlers of the world. I love this game and want to do all I can to get as many people to learn this game and for them to get as good as they can get. I have bowled for many years and have had my share of successes and failures. I am a certified coach and love helping people with little tips or full-fledged lessons, as long as they are willing to listen and try to get better. I coach kids, as well as adults and my biggest thing when coaching is to never say anything that is negative. Always say something positive. That is the best way to get someone to listen to you and for them to respond in a positive manner. Don't tell a bowler they did this wrong or that wrong, aske them if they followed through, or did they hit their mark? You will get a much better response than with a negative comment.
