The master himself shares his invaluable insight into how to maximise your bowling ability, aided by his long-time friend and team-mate David Rhys-Jones. This is essentially a video version of Bryant's famed instructional book of the same name, although it sticks more to the techniques of playing the game over the psychological aspects. Filmed in 1991 at the David Bryant Bowling Centre, Prestat...
It drives me mad ,if the jack is carelessly delivered ,I actually practice this part of the game ,especially with the mat up and jack going to maximum length
I always wonder what became of those featured in the videos! I presume most will have passed now 30 years on, but I hope they enjoyed many more years of bowling after this video.
I know this is an old video but i found it’s been really helpful to try to find what works for me. I am a very new bowler. I’ve been able to try out different grips and stances and feel more confident about it all.
Just what I need thanks from South Derry
gooood
SCOTTISH GREENS HEAVY? THATS A LOADA SHITE
Played there what a dump
D w@
I think this video was wonderful. It shows many techniques and the importance of finding what works for you
My ambition is to eventually be financially secure enough to just be able to go to the bowling hall and simply bowl. That's it. Seems a good life!
TH-cam needs ai stabilization tools to fix videos like this.
So useful, I have learnt a lot here
At 26.30 when Margaret plays the weight shot to leave her 3 up, her delivery did not change just the amount of weight in her swing. Great player.
I went to Abbeyhill school with him , not a good memory .
More details please!!
What? Did you not do well at Abbeyhill?
In door bowls

Strategy without war, within peace.
This is awesome... Many thanks. *like* .
Corsie’s bowls delivery is lovely. Shame there are not more matches (any) of his matches on TH-cam to enjoy.
oops, sorry I was too impatient - back hand!
when driving do you use the back hand or the forehand?
With me being new to the game and waited for my membership being excepted, I went and watched many bowlers and noticed they all went for the long jack, why is this as I never seen anyone throwing a shorter jack?
alan carlyon I’ve played the game, bowlers are too lazy to kick the woods back. Enjoy the game.
Am new to the game and am looking up all lawn bowling tuitions. My question is - what IS the average bias? What is minimum bias and what is maximum, knowing these figures would help me and many others tuning in to this tuition video! Many thanks! Great tuition by the way!
Hi, I have not joined a club yet and I have only had one tuition lesson in how to play bowls I thought I would check video's first in how to hold the bowl and how the rules were told Watching Tony play two ends with his guest I noticed his guest kept moving the matt with his foot now and then before playing his bowl, my question is - Is this allowed as I do not know?
You can't move the mat forward of backwards once it has been placed But you are allowed to adjust it slightly left to right so it is aligned centrally
Didn't know Daniel Radcliffe played bowls lol
Its Andrew Wills… in later years led for Tony Alcock in many National Comps and eventually became England Bowls Captain
Claws bowls sales
I can across this video on Berts Bowls Guide - there's lots good videos there that should help you
Hong Kong international
I found a good compilation of videos that may help you at Berts Bowls Guide
There are a few factors in bowls basics. One resource I found which succeeds in merging these is the Berts bowls guide (google it if you're interested) without a doubt the no.1 blueprint that I have ever heard of. Check out all the amazing information.
hey ,if anyone else wants to learn about bowls hand release try Berts Bowls Guide (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my colleague got great success with it.
Brian duncan is mr crown green bowling
New to bowls but coming along well already been told by County players that i will go places...
😂😂😂
Yes, this needs to be updated. Information for indoor and Flat green bowls is significantly different than it is for the proper game of Crown Green Bowls. When you have a crown or a mound in the centre of the green to contend with it throws a whole new perspective on the game. The two main manufacturers are 'Taylor' and 'Drakes Pride', both of which are excellent bowls. As a novice I can only pass on what I have heard from experienced players and their views appears to be the former for a strong bias and the latter for following the jack. Good advice Tony gives is go along to a club where they will allow you to try out different sizes before you find one that is comfortable for you. Back in the day of the making of this video the sizes were determined in 5s, 4s, 3s, etc. Nowadays we're more familiar with 2.4s at the light end, generally the ladies choice, up to 2.10s at the heavy end.
Rather obnoxious of you to suggest indoor and flat green are not "proper games" . Enjoy your game of choice and try to be less judgemental on other people's choices
Thanks . I learned a lot
Very low definition video - obviously made some years ago but only published on YT this year.
Tape dates from 1995 to be precise.
Very boring.
Very helpful, great for beginners, would like more carpet bowls
boring to the simple mind
GREAT TUTORIAL....LOVE IT
Thanks for that plenty of points for me to practice,at Tweed Heads Bowls club tomorrow
