Question: What is a stroker bowler in bowling?

Answer:

A stroker is a bowler who focuses on accuracy, consistency, and smooth ball motion rather than raw power. Strokers use moderate ball speed (14 to 18 mph) and lower rev rates (200 to 300 RPM). They prefer a controlled release and play straighter lines closer to the center or outside of the lane for predictable arcing hook.
