Review by Alaskan Steve for Beyond the Bowling Basics
Rating:
This DVD is extremely well-done, with detailed discussions of equipment, physical/mental preparation, ball delivery, reading & adjusting to lanes, and making spares. Parker Bohn’s presentation style is also excellent — very clear, relaxed, and engaging.
Equipment discussions have useful information for everyone from beginner to expert, and cover everything from proper fit for a ball (whether conventional grip, semi-fingertip, or full fingertip), shoes, peripheral/extra equipment (e.g., finger inserts, wrist supports, tape, rosin bags, etc.).
The spare-making section was especially well-done, and includes very detailed diagrams, discussions, and demonstrations for all the common leaves. Importantly, this is shown for both left-handers (by Parker Bohn III) and for right-handers (by Brad Angelo).
Also valuable were the “fireside chats” between Angelo and Bohn, during which they discussed many things they have learned over the years that have made the biggest difference to them.
I absolutely recommend this DVD to bowlers of all skill levels, whether you’re just starting out, or have been carrying a 200 average for years – there’s something in here for everyone.

I have just started bowling with a fingertip ball and wanted some instruction on how to release the ball. This did not cover that but it was a help on approach and picking up spares.

This DVD was well done, but mistitled. It starts with the three types of grips, and that if you are a serious bowler, you may want to get your own shoes. It doesn’t get any more basic than that. There was NO discussion of throwing a strike ball, Lane reading or lane breakdown. No mention of adjustments, ball selection, or proper angle to the pocket. I would only recommend this DVD to very young or new bowlers that have no clue about the game.
