🎯 NEW SERIES — AND WE’RE GETTING A GRIP! 😜🔥

You can have the perfect line in your head… but if the bowl isn’t sitting correctly in your hand, it might have completely different plans! 😂

PART 2: GRIP & BOWL ORIENTATION 🟡🔵

A consistent delivery starts before the bowl even leaves your hand.

👉 Bias facing the right way
👉 Fingers supporting the bowl
👉 Same grip, shot after shot
👉 Build that muscle memory
👉 Create a cleaner, more predictable release

Because in lawn bowls, those tiny details can make a BIG difference between…

🎯 “Perfect bowl!”
and
🌳 “Well… that certainly took the scenic route.” 🤣

💬 BOWLERS — how do YOU grip your bowl?
Do you have a set routine every time, or do you simply pick it up and trust the magic? 👀😂

👇 Share your grip tips below — especially for the newer bowlers following the series!
