Choosing a bowling ball depnds on whether you are a casual, once in a while bowler or bowl regularly in a league or tournaments.

The surface material of the ball is probably the most critical aspect to consider in purchasing a bowling ball.  This determines the friction on the lane as  the ball travels down the lane.  More friction gives more hook.

Bowlers are divided into three basic groups: the ones the use 3-step approaches, the ones the use 4-step approaches, and those that use 5-step approaches to get to the foul line.

A large group of bowlers have chosen over the years to use a 4-step delivery, it gives them and nicely coordinated approach that allows them to have the correct rhythm to perfect their release.

Most of the oil is on the middle part of the lane.  From about the second arrow to the gutter, less oil is present.  This allows for more hook on the ball.

If you throw on the outside area, the ball hooks toward the pocket.  If you throw toward  the center of the lane, the oil keeps the ball headed toward the pocket.

Aim for the arrows instead of the pins for better accuracy.  The arrows are located a ways out on the lane.  Rolling the ball over the arrows will take some foot adjustment at each arrow.  The adjustment should be to the right for the futherest arrow to the right.  Move slightly to the left for the next arrow going left toward the center and left again slightly for the next arrow to the left and etc.  There are also dots at the approach which may be used the same way as the arrows.
