As a total new guy to bowling I just wanted to add that Michelle Mullen's book "Bowling Fundamentals" is the best I've seen for a total beginner. Very well written.

I would like to add "See it, Feel it, Do it" by Mo Pinel. This book is the basis for many of the skills that are currently being taught at the Kegel Training Center in Lake Wales, Florida.

I also recommend any of the books written by the late Bill Taylor. His books focus on drilling and fitting bowling balls.
