Getting focused for bowling

This book is great if you have the technique down but are having problems with the mental parts of bowling. However, it's a good book all around but specializes in the mental part of bowling.

A must have!

This book deals with the mental game of bowling. It evaluates how you are right now and gives you tips on how to prepare for each shot. The book has charts that you can copy and evaluate your where you think you're currently at. After you use the tips it suggests, you can reevaluate yourself in the future to see where you have improved. This book is a must have for the bower that wants to improve their game. I have applied the tips to my game and still continue to improve my overall scores and averages. I find that reading this book will give me a tremendous edge on my opponents when I bowl tournaments. Go on and give it a try! PBA Member since 2007

It's a Head-Game afterall

Dean Hinitz provides some clear solutions to one of biggest challenges to Scoring Success.

A Must Read

I've attended bowling camp, had lessons, watched videos, regularly read Bowling This Month, have read a dozen books on bowling and this by far is the best. If you're looking for advice on the physical fundamentals of the game this is NOT the book for you, read John Jowdy's Bowling Execution. However, if you have shown signs of having a relatively sound physical game then Focused for Bowling is for you. It emphasizes developing your mental game, which any seasoned bowler will tell you is the key to consistency and success. Why do some excel in the spotlight and others crack under pressure? Your mental game is the answer. There are many exercises and suggestions in this book that will help you develop a stronger mental game. There is even a section on dealing with slumps. Two years ago I was developing into a pretty good bowler. I loved the moment of needing a turkey in the tenth to win; and I often delivered. Then I went into a terrible slump. I tried everything, over thought the game, became negative about my ability, and lost my confidence as the anchor of my team. This year I started regaining my old form, but was still inconsistent and found myself thinking too much. The final straw: I missed a seven pin in the tenth that cost us a game. I picked up this book and have been lights-out since. I bowled a 299 and have average a consistent 205 for the past 8 weeks. Once you understand the physical aspects of the game, you must read Focused for Bowling!!!
