Let me tell you the truth, bowling is not easy. But at the same time it's a fascinating game which can entertain and enthrall you. If you are just starting out with bowling it is certain that you will be going through many frustrating sessions before you get a grip on things. But a couple of tips can make your work easy and your learning curve shorter.As a beginner you should not concentrate on your score: As you can imagine as a beginner you will never be able to score like veterans of this game. So if you concentrate on your low score you will very easily get frustrated.Make sure that you are comfortable handling the ball: Bowling ball comes in various weights and types. Choose the one you are more comfortable with. A ball with lighter weight will be best option for the beginner. As you gain experience you might want to switch to heavier ball later. Many experienced players use heavy ball because that gives them more accuracy and control over the ball.Concentrate on the correct footwork: Right footwork is very important. And the easiest way to have correct footwork is observing and emulating veteran bowlers. If possible ask someone experienced to watch over your actions and point out your flaws.Don't try to hook unless you are comfortable with straight shots: it is true that hooks look nice and also hook shots are very effective in getting strikes. But at the same time it is not easy. As someone who is just starting out concentrate more on straight shots. Once you are comfortable with straight shots and have good feeling of interaction between ball, bowling alley and your own delivery and follow through you will be better equipped for hook shots.
