Next Sunday, July 5th, 2009 during our group classes at the Gold Coast and at Sunset Station, we will have our training aid set up which helps to train you to look at your target and not to look up at the pins. It is adjustable for bowlers of all heights and whether you wear glasses or not.
 

 
Helpful Info:    Ball cleaning rules.   Keys to the mental game for tournament and competitive bowlers.
 

The USBC National Tournament is starting soon at Cashman Field in Las Vegas. We've had several people inquire about putting teams together. Please let me know if you'd like to bowl and I'll do my best to put people together. We currently have bowlers from the Classified and Open Divisions. Averages ranging from 162 to 215. If you are bowling already and want to name your team "Learn to Bowl.com", I will be eternally grateful and will offer my first born male son to you. If I am available, I will also try to come take pix and/or video of the team while bowling. This offer is open to anyone.

FYI: Sunset Station has the Nationals shot set up on lanes 1-8 every weekday except Thursday from 9 am to 2 pm for you to practice on. Cost is only $2 a game. The Strike Zone is one of the most beautiful bowling centers in the world.

Try something new - Learn to Play Poker

If you are heading to Vegas to bowl, that might be a great time to try Poker - the old American pastime that is extremely popular all over the world today. But before you do, visit one of the many sites online and read up on poker hand rankings, rules and strategy before you challenge the professional sharks.

We want to help you bowl better.....come to a few group lessons soon.

1 hour private lessons are $45
1/2 hour private lessons are $30.
90 minute group lesson/tune-up for 4 bowlers - $90.
60 minute lesson for 2 bowlers - $60
Individual lessons include lineage at most bowling centers.
Digital video taping/analysis/coaching is included free with a minimum 2-hour lesson.
Includes tape of bowling to take home with many shots recorded in slo-mo for easy and clear viewing.

Discount plans available for multiple lesson purchases
(highly recommended for the greatest opportunity for improvement).

A.)   5 private 1-hr lessons, 1 private 2-hr video lesson, 6 entries to the Gold Coast Sunday group clinic - $330
(16 hours total of coaching/bowling).
B.)   4 private 1-hr lessons & 4 entries to the Gold Coast Sunday group clinic - $220
(10 hours total of coaching/bowling).
C.)   2 private 1-hr lessons & 2 entries to the Gold Coast Sunday group clinic - $110
(5 hours total of coaching/bowling).
No additional costs with group pricing or lessons.

10% discount on purchases of private lessons of 3 or more w/o Sunday group clinics.


 
Certain group classes are better designed for "tips and pointers", and are excellent for middle to high average bowlers.
They can also be great for newer bowlers who have already had a private lesson or 2 and want to practice things
we've previously worked on without the expense of a private lesson.
What you learn today, doesn't become "muscle memory" until a minimum of 20-30 hours
of effective practice and repetition. The most effective practice is to bowl less games, more often.
Try to avoid long marathon practice sessions when learning new techniques.
Different themes and special guests/coaches at group classes on certain dates
(please check the web site for schedules and any changes).
       Feel like you're not moving forward with your bowling game? ..........maybe a lesson or 3 could help!

Learn to Bowl.com Star Bowler of the Month                             
(June - 2009)                                 

Sylvia Berggren      

"Learn to Bowl.com
Star Bowler of the Month".

Congratulations to Sylvia Berggren
for being this month's
Bowler of the Month.

   

Sylvia is a great asset to our Sunday morning group session at the Gold Coast. Her friendly demeanor and desire to improve are just what we're looking for. In the last couple of months, Sylvia has been coming almost every Sunday since her winter league ended so she could improve her game and work on things during the summer before next years winter leagues start back up. Well, improve she has done. Her "ball roll" and spare making capabilities have improved dramatically. She works as hard anyone at improving and it's a pleasure to see someone with that kind of desire.


 
Sylvia is also an avid golfer and is a natural athlete. Sylvia also practices on her own regularly and it's nice that she's seeing the hard work pay off as her scores continue to go up. There's no doubt her teammates will notice the improvement as she starts bowling league again in the fall. Keep up the good work and thanks for the opportunity to help you with your game (and for letting us see your smiling face so often on Sundays).
