Simple enough for a tournament, you just divide all of your scores by the amount of games you play. If you bowl a league you can usually find your total pinfall somewhere on the league sheet. If you add your series for this week plus your total pinfall and divide by the total games including this week you get your average.

Your bowling handicap depends on what league you're in. My handicap went from a 12 to a 33 when I switched leagues.

How does USBC establish bowling book averages?

Book averages are typically calculated by using the ending average of a certified league, providing the average has at least 12 games (or 21 depending on the situation). If a player has bowled multiple certified leagues in a season, each league will have it's own book average, however the highest of the averages is what the bowler will be using normally for tournaments for the following year.

What strategies do you use in bowling?

The best strategy in bowling is to knock down as many pins as possible. Bowling, while it can be an individual or team sport, is not a defensive sport. Some bowlers or teams will use a term called sand bagging, which is purposely bowling below their abilities and average in an attempt to lower their averages so that they can receive higher handicap or be classified in a different division in tournament entries. This practice is frowned upon and many leagues have rules that penalize bowlers or teams that sand bag.
