1. Find Your Perfect Ball:
Select a ball weighing approximately 10% of your body weight with finger holes that feel
comfortable.
2. Master Your Stance:
Position yourself with shoulders squared to your target, knees slightly bent, and ball held
at chest height.
3. Perfect Your Approach:
Maintain a smooth four-step approach, releasing the ball at the foul line with your arm
following through like a pendulum.
4. Target the Pocket:
Aim for the space between the headpin and the pin beside it for maximum strike
potential.
5. Embrace Patience:
Focus on consistency and technique rather than power; precision beats force every time.
