About the Book

How to Pick Up Spares breaks down 51 pin combinations and spare-shot setups for both right-handed and left-handed bowlers. It explains how to set up for the shot using a hook ball, aiming for the strike target, or using a plastic spare ball, which will give the bowler a straight shot. Each example has an accompanying art figure showing where the feet are set up on the lane and the path of the hook ball and straight ball. The original content in this mini e-book will help you pick up spares more effectively. If you’re also interested in developing your complete game, then complement How to Pick Up Spares with Michelle Mullen’s Bowling Fundamentals, Second Edition (Human Kinetics, 2014), which provides comprehensive coverage on the equipment, techniques, lane play and spare-shooting strategies, and mental training necessary for success on the lanes.

Review :
“In the second edition of Bowling Fundamentals, Michelle combines her vast knowledge of the game and almost three decades of experience as a world-class player and premier coach to help bowlers of all ages and levels advance their skills and techniques.” Rod Ross-- U.S. Head Coach, Director of International Training Center “Michelle Mullen’s passion for bowling shines in the second edition of Bowling Fundamentals! Regardless of your skill level, this great book provides the technique instruction and motivational tips so you can learn and enjoy the game.” Liz Johnson-- Team USA member, Three-Time U.S. Open Champion (1996, 2013, 2007), PBA Men’s Tour Member “After reading this book, I came to the conclusion that it’s the greatest book on bowling that I have ever read, and at age 73, I’ve read a lot of them! I have been using the book as an instructional guide for three years, and it has helped me change my bowling game for the better. This book focuses on both the physical and mental aspects of the game, which makes it the most comprehensive book on the techniques of bowling.” Jeff Garver-- Plymouth, Michigan
