Others point to America’s economic downturn, the worst since the Depression, and some speculate that the switch to an all-handicap format kept some bowlers from entering."

~ Leftie asks questions about track, symmetry, carrying the 7 pin -- "What’s the difference between a medium or high track? I’m a leftie. Which ball is better: asymmetrical or symmetrical? What can a leftie do to carry the 7 pin?"
~ Follow-Through Like a Pro -- "Try to imagine your follow-through as two motions, upward and outward. If you hit-up on the ball and follow-through with excessive motion past your ear to your back, the you are throwing more upward than outward..."
