Well, like I tell the people I coach, steady, and quality, not
necessarily quantity. But there is this thing called muscle memory and
if you don't bowl on a steady basis that muscle memory will tend to fade with time. The more muscle memory you have developed the less you have
to think about your motion and mechanics and the more your body will
flow physically and the smoother you will be. I tend to practice steady
up till a few days before a tournament and then rest so I am fresh for
the tournament. Below is a video of some of the Pro's I bowl with
talking about how much they practice. If you keep up with bowling over
time you will notice that the pro's in this video who tend to practice
more and on a steady basis are the ones you have seen the most on TV
lately. Practice is important so long as you don't overdo it, cause like
Bill O'neal states, you don't want to get burned out.
