Use a ruler
The first thing I use when playing this game is a ruler or straight edge I think you can guess why.
When you’re stuck up, festering old opponent decides to do a master shot knocking your ball away and his ball closer then use the old count_mikeula trick: Move your Cybunny up to the top or bottom of the screen (which ever is more helpful) but don’t go all the way up, this is important.
Place your ruler on the computer screen and judge you shot from there to line up with your opponents ball. Use a full power shot on it.
Your ball will bounce back giving you potentially more points for this round, if you keep it up.
This method prevents the jack from being knocked out, gets you more points per round and makes you look a lot better at computer bowls than you really are.
Trust me if it can work for a n00b like me than it can work for anyone. – count_mikeula
Knock out your opponent’s ball
Put your mouse in the center of your opponent’s bowl right before they throw and keep it there until it is your turn. Then click the mouse and bring it to maximum throw. If you do this, then it will knock your opponent’s bowl out of the way and you will have their exact spot. – y2001grl
