Bowling Tips on Perfecting the 2-4-6 Spare ShotThe 3-6-9 spare system is the most commonly taught system, but the 2-4-6 system may be the most accurate system for picking up spares.

The spare system can give bowlers many advantages. Sometimes players aren’t able to move their feet because the ball return may be in the way, or the player might be playing on an end-lane, which is near a wall.In these instances, moving the feet can create problems in the 3-6-9 spare system. However, using the 2-4-6 method is the best way to avoid problems, and to accurately pick up spares in all conditions.
