Summary: Dry - and I'm not talking lane conditions
Comment: I agree with one of the reviews that I read here about this book. BORING. Unless you are a robot, do not buy this book. I like lots of detail on the mechanics and science behind the game with illustrations. The book accomplishes this on some fronts by showing the 3021 technique and some other useful tips, but it fails in not showing others. It does not delve enough into the hook release and shooting at strikes + lane conditions.
This book does have a lot of illustrations and it does give you the basics, however, this book focuses mostly on bowling drills.

Summary: Review of Bowling: Steps to Success by Robert Strickland
Comment: Robert Strickland's book is a great book for the individual wanting to understand the mechanics and technique needed for building a solid bowling swing. There are step-by-step drills provided, along with success tests for each drill. Having bowled with a poor technique for years, this book helped me to see how much I was doing incorrectly, and why my scoring was so inconsistent. I have applied many of the principles Strickland outlines to my own bowling technique, such as using a four-step delivery, as well as the timing of each arm motion with the feet in the swing, and have found greater success and consistency in hitting my mark on the lane. While variances will inevitably occur with each bowler (for example, I need to start with my knees bent more deeply, as I tend to lift my shoulders and drop the ball at the line, whereas Strickland recommends a more upright "snooty" posture at the outset of the swing), it is a good book to "review the basics" and check your own technique against.
