Coaching Comparison
Pro Shop Lessons vs. Private PBA Instruction
Understanding the difference between ball fitting checkups and dedicated physical coaching.
Two Different Approaches to Improvement
Many Indianapolis bowlers turn to local pro shops like Don Mitchell Pro Shop for quick PAP measurements or ball fitting checks on an in-house lane. Pro shops play a vital role in proper ball drilling and span measurements.
However, when your goal is to master lane transition, improve footwork timing, and raise your league average 20 pins, dedicated 1-on-1 coaching with a national tour champion offers a complete, unhurried training environment.
Why Dedicated On-Lane Coaching Wins
- Unbiased Equipment Advice: Pro shops are in the business of selling new bowling balls. As former Storm Products Head Coach, Mike DeVaney evaluates your existing arsenal objectively, showing you when to adjust surface grit with Abralon pads rather than buying new gear.
- Comprehensive Physical & Mental Game: 1-on-1 sessions cover your entire approach, armswing, spare math, and mental focus, not just ball release.
- Full-Length Lane Play: Instruction takes place on full regulation lanes at Strike Force Lanes in Greenfield, IN, giving you realistic ball motion feedback on full oil breakdown.
