Spin, positioning, and momentum are each critical factors to your success as a Silver Strike bowler. Increase your odds of a strike by positioning yourself to hit the number 1 pin with sufficient force and pin action. Momentum is determined by the weight of your ball and the speed at which you strike it. A lighter ball gives more control but less momentum. Select a ball weight 12 - 16 lbs. Look through Overhead View, then use the trackball to line up your bowler's shot with the lane boards and dots. Rotate your bowler left or right to change your position. Roll back for a backswing and roll foward to bowl. Watch your shot through different camera angles. Press Left, Right, or Overhead buttons to toggle through cameras. Pressing the Slow Motion button as your ball approaches the pins will allow you to see the pins fly in dramatic affect. Control is easier with a lighter ball. Momentum and pin action are greatest with the heaviest ball. Find the  What is Bowler's Club?
