Abstract

A bowling aid is constructed to include a panel member from which there extends a finger guide and stiffener member. Cutouts enable the panel member to be wrapped about the hand and wrist in a manner to expose the thumb and fingers. Overlapping parts of the panel are attached to one another by Velcro fasteners. The stiffener and guide member includes a tongue part which is received within a pocket formed within the panel. The finger guide is positioned forwardly of the stiffener member and extends forwardly of the panel member for receiving the knuckles of one's second and third fingers therewithin. The fingers, hand, wrist, and forearm are restrained by the bowling aid device in a manner which increases one's bowling skill.
