Mandated rotation of forms for first balls, every frame (or mark in 10th). Synonyms for "form" include "style" and "delivery".

When "neat", spares' styles match the first balls', if "flexible" any delivery can be thrown for a spare.

Two-handed right (RR), one-handed right (R), one-handed left (L) and two-handed left (LL) are the four forms. Backups and backwards are excluded.

Purpose

1. Correct a limiting belief from a 1990's coach: if you change hands, you'll ruin your primary.

My experience has shown developing an alternative delivery makes clearer--and thus easier to improve--the knowledge within the primary. Deliveries educate each other through innovation fueled by inevitable asymmetric differences in every body.

2. Create an organization dedicated to the cultivation of ambidexterity in sport and real-life. This new organization's flagship product is Four-Form Bowling.

3. Study the effects on score, enjoyment, longevity and more from rotating through deliveries instead of repeating the same. Open the doors to research, innovation and supports for lifelong participation.

4. Better understand the impacts of environment and consumption habits on score, enjoyment, longevity and more. Would loud music continue to dominate bowling centers if shown to reduce score? Alcohol? Cannabis? Psilcobyn? (Only where legal)

Co-create skilled, emotionally well-rounded, ethical players capable of self-regulation and cultural sensitivity on and off the alley.

Petition

Link to the petition asking if having a 200 average in a non-sanctioned league using the same ball (thumb hole when two-handed) should be considered for Seniors PBA.

Second petition that is identical with only change being thumbless ball.

Survey

Why is ambidexterity useful in life?

What about bowling excites you?

What percent of score would you lose if using house balls instead of what you throw?

Is there a solution or solutions for always taking out corner pins and stone 8/9s?

After leaving a 10-pin on a right-sided first ball, is converting lefty cheating? (Mirror image applies too - 7s from the right)

Is having the most clean games lifetime (without an open frame) a valid goal to prove skill and longevity of four-form bowling?

Does bowling improve balancing on one leg?

Does music played by houses hinder or support your game?

Has music played by the house ever been too loud for you or someone you know to concentrate or communicate?

If cannabis, psilcobyn, MSMD, etc were as available as alcohol at bowling alleys, would you want knowledge of consumption habits on results, including score, social rapport and inner growth?
