Comments on: Using Your Dominant Eye to Improve Accuracy While Targeting https://www.nationalbowlingacademy.com/post/using-dominant-eye-to-improve-accuracy-bowling/ Fri, 12 Apr 2024 16:56:34 +0000 hourly 1 By: North Joleen https://www.nationalbowlingacademy.com/post/using-dominant-eye-to-improve-accuracy-bowling/comment-page-1/#comment-1487979 Fri, 12 Apr 2024 16:56:34 +0000 https://www.nationalbowlingacademy.com/?p=264351#comment-1487979 I had to switch to my left hand a couple years ago because I can no longer use my right hand to bowl. I am right eye dominant and have trouble hitting my target. I am pretty comfortable using my left hand now, but targeting is still an issue. I am not sure where to focus, to the right of my target or the left of my target? Any suggestions?

I am also right handed and left eye dominant. I remember reading an article the said our best method is to focus much further down the land than the arrows.

Hello and thanks for the question.
If your eye injury will lead to permanent blurriness, you can change your dominant eye with work. Utilizing an eye patch and working with one step drills, over time you can switch your dominant eye.
If your eye injury is temporary, take a break from bowling for a minute and heal.

Thanks for watching.

I usually stand on 12 to hit 7 or 8 at the arrows. Where should I align my feet at the stance?

Hi Morris,

Sorry to hear about your hip pain.

You can reduce the amount of steps to a one step and throw by walking up near the foul line and doing a one step throw.

Any suggestions?

Hello Tom and thanks for the question.

Incorporate a crossover step with your ball start and you should be able to clear your leg when the ball is centered in your stance.

If you have any other questions, please chat, email, or call Customer Service.

So as many have asked how do you line up when you are left eye dominate and bowl right handed. I can’t center the ball in front of my left eye.

Hello and thanks for the question.

Make sure you keep the target stationary and do not move your circle.

Only blink between the eyes.

Check out this article on the subject.
