  • How to Make Spares
    How To Make Spares There is an old saying amongst bowlers "make spares and the strikes will take care of themselves." This is sound advice. After all, you can bowl as high as 190 without ever bowling a strike! In Tenpin Bowling the idea is to knock over as many pins as possible with your first ball, if the first ball is not a strike you're going to leave pins standing. No spare is easy to convert but there are very few that cannot be picked up with a well-placed ball. To become a good spare bowler takes practice, you must first develop a good and consistent armswing and approach, then become familiar with the angles on the lane and maintain a good shoulder position. These are the fundamentals of good spare bowlers. Accuracy is the secret to good spare bowling and accuracy can be achieved only by constant practice. With each game your eye will become more adept at "hitting" the exact spot to convert your spares. Practice will have your arm obeying your eye with increasing frequency. Even "Splits" which are where you have a wide gap between pins are the most difficult to make, but even some splits will be converted to spares as your consistency improves. Many beginner bowlers try and throw as many strikes as possible and when they miss they are careless with their spare ball. A beginner bowler will not put that much thought into the "spare ball" as they would the strike ball; therefore their scores are generally low. When all is done and the game is over a couple of minutes of calculating will tell you how important it is to pick up spares.
