Bowling Hand Positions - The Different Hand Positions in Bowling

Adjusting Your Shot to the Lane Condition - Find Your Strike Line
Bowling lanes require an application of oil to protect and maintain the lane surface. This oil or conditioner is usually spread across the lane surface by machine according to a set pattern depending on what the bowling venue is for that session; it could be open bowling, a league or a tournament. The various oil patterns will affect how your ball reacts to the lane and thus how it gets to your target.
