 A study published in the journal Age and Ageing, in October 2007, reveals that performance declines in bowling at an elite level are far less than other sports. Specifically, over a 50 year period, an elite (professional and master) bowler’s performance will decline approximately 8%, far less than the norm of a 10% performance decline with each additional decade of a person's life with sports requiring significant cardiovascular endurance and muscular strength. And, the research confirmed that elite bowlers can maintain their best performances through the age of 45 where performance declines are first seen. This study demonstrates how important skill and technique are in the sport of bowling and that bowling is a sport that bowler’s can be competitive over a lifetime.

 In Surface 101, I have compiled a wealth of important information on bowling ball surface and surface change into one 9 page document to help bowlers and coaches. Specifically, this document will provide readers with insight into the elements of surface change, surface properties, how-to change the surface, ball reaction after surface change, qualities of specific abrasives, qualities of specific polishes, how-to maintain and deep clean a bowling ball, how-to sand a bowling ball for a specific ball reaction as well as subsequent ball motion. |
