HOW TO know when there's new news & info is added, because you want to be
better informed! Anything new is in my next section, just below!
HOW TO enjoy sports better because of being better informed! I have
25 mental game articles for almost instant help!
HOW TO increase your confidence, because it's one of the biggest factors in sports,
is in My online Confidence 101 classes!
HOW TO HELP YOU TEAM are a click away! After all, your team will need someone to
step up. Team needs goals too. There's no I in team. Team Chemestry.
HOW TO navigate to different sections on my huge HOW TO website: Banners on top
of webpages are about my book and the bottom are the four informative
sections on my HOW TO website!
HOW TO directly go to any webpage is now just one click away with a link to that page!
NOTE: I had to put enough info on my site so you would know how serious I am about what the mental game meant to me and what it should mean to all athletes. It's the mental game that enabled me to do some GREAT things, mostly in bowling. Knowledge and your experences will show others who you are. My accomplishments page is a little long for good reasons. Experiences create confidence when more good results happen over time. The challenges I faced along with bowling pot games, showed I had potential. I've turned those moments into making good money in tournaments and winning an
eagle in the Tucson Senior Masters.
Since competing at a higher level, I know athletes can get mentally drained, so I also added some history and some humorious articles, as athletes need to have fun too.
I had to combine several pages together in my mental section due to the limit of 50 pages. With the limit of the website building software, this website doesn't have a lot of flash to it.
I have the info out for those that want to see it. Since my website years ago for the Traveling Masters League won an award, the All Star Bowling Site, I've included 5 pages dedicated to the Greatest league ever. Bowlers still ask me if it will ever happen again? Answer is no. With the biggest prize fund for a scratch league, too many wanted to chance a few things. If it isn't broken, why fix it?
Thanks for visiting. I hope my huge HOW TO website woke you up as to why you NEED A GREAT MANTAL GAME! If it helped, you'll have to work a little to achieve better results in competition. My HUGE HOW TO website is one of the biggest private sports mental game websites that includes bowling, so any athlete can learn and improve their game!
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you fill your shelves with hardware!
See you in the Zone! - Alan "Mr. Stats" Brizee

HOW TO get athletes to check out my HOW TO website?
By having a HUGE HOW TO website that has a little bit of everything except the kitchen sink! All athletes need some down time and info to get out of a slump or to see positive events happen more often. That's why I wrote my HOW TO book:
HOW TO avoid certain situations,
HOW TO reduce pressure situations,
HOW TO see what confidence can do for you,
HOW TO go after your goals,
HOW TO have more fun,
HOW TO get to the Zone and
HOW TO compete and see positive results happen more often.
The mental game isn't rocket science, but you need to understand, HOW TO get your mental game out of the gutter! 😊(This is for all the bowlers out there, since I'm a bowler.)
HOW TO have fun should be etched in your mind. If it's not fun, why do you continue to compete when you get frustrated after a close loss? Having fun MUST happen when getting to the Zone! Not having any fun? Being stressed out isn't the answer as decisions may be rushed not clearly thought out completely.
HOW TO show athletes other sites that may help them relive part of their past. These sites include entertainment, bowlinvg, history, museums, publications, podcasts and always more information. One for the Mr. 900 book with another for an awesome collection of bowling photos from the past. It also showed bowling lessons on records, something I've never seen. Another photo site is for classic centers that I just found. Reliving history for seniors are great events of the past. I've included the All-Star Bowling site of the Month as Joey may not have the links up much longer and I wanted to honor him for my website award from over 20 years ago.
HOW TO do things differently. I have a few must reads on my HOW TO website:
HOW TO talk bowling with my Modern Bowling Dictionary which has links
and photos for a more interactive page. I've added over 100 words since I
first had it online 20 years ago. I hope you enjoy it.
HOW TO know the competition and HOW TO beat them at their own game.
HOW TO honor some great people whom I crossed paths with while I was
committing to Excellence with my Who's who list and where to find them.
HOW TO find another good book is in my mental library and one reason why
my mental game is better than most athletes. And because my mental
game showed that my positive attitude and persistence to make GREAT
things happen, my confidence kept growing! And now, you can grow with ...
HOW TO be confident is my online course. Check out the College of Toughness
and pre-test for my Confidence 101 course.
I have finally completed the navigation for my HOW TO website after a couple of
weeks, fixed some broken links and made webpages look more professional. At the top of each page, there are links for my HOW TO book and mental games webpages and mental game sections. At the bottom of all pages are links to other sections on my
HOW TO website.
Since you're here on my HOW TO website map page, every webpage is listed for your reading pleasure and click on that webpage or section to take you there. I have a decicated page for those that have bought one of my HOW TO books. I will list new pages just below my site map and their link will get you there. I also have a Tribute to all the
who's who have helped me Commit to Excellence and they are listed by first names and just below.
My HOW TO website has changed several times and now has more mental articles and
looks better!
Who helped out with my book?
Who has made a Commitment to Excellence?
Who has made a difference during my lifetime?
Who loves to help others chasing thier dreams?
Who are the real competitors?
Who are real friends when you need them?
A lot of Who's that I'm glad to have crossed paths with!
It was these 29 Who's, who stood up to be counted. Thank you so much!
This index is for honoring the who's, who have impacted my life enough that I wanted to give them even more credit. These who's appear somewhere in my HUGE extensive website. Below are my listings of incredible people in alphabetic order by first names, is the legend where these who's can be found on my site and have the quick links to those pages.
For these who's and others that appear on my website, thanks for making it mostly fun, real and at times real fun! Mr. Stats just showing you, more have fun moments.

BVL provides recreational and therapeutic programs and services to brighten the days of America's active duty and veteran service men and women. I'm a veteran and now retired, I wanted to help other Vets enjoy the sport I love. With the purchase of my book, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to BVL. You' too can helping those who served our country enjoy what most athletes will take for granted. The veterans thank you.
The phantom helps bring back the past with his guests and his trivia contest. The weekly podcast highlights many aspects of yesteryear and even a few current events. Over 1100 shows and over 400 guests in the 18 years on the air. Dick Weber was his first guest, and it took off to the moon from there. I have been a guest on his podcast a couple of times. Click here for my two podcasts are on the about page.
So far, the path to publishing my first book from several articles I wrote years ago, has been an eye opener. A few small potholes along the way to the printing stage, didn't change the publishing date. My dream to to give back to athletes has now become a reality. Dorrance Publishing now has published my book to even the playing field for all athletes to gain knowledge to compete at a higher level. The $14 price is a steal of a deal. Take your game to a higher level!
The photo on the left is a postcard stamped 1909 in Illinois and is my piece of bowling history. The Phoenix post card show is where I found this card. It was made in Germany showing a "wrong" two hander which is now the new normal for some that want to enjoy the great sport of bowling. I've included a link above to the bowling museum and have visited both cities, St. Louis and Arlington that tells the story of bowling. Reno also has a satellite museum at the stadium.
This facebook page has over 100 photos from the 50's to the 80's and it's not all bowlers. A great collection to look through. He also has links to you tube videos to back up all the great photos.
This page has some great photos when bowling was having only one ball.
After Cactus Bowl (Photo on left.), a 60 lanes center when the pros came to Tucson, closed in 2014 with 32 lanes, Golden Pin Lanes with 48 lanes, closed in 2018 and also hosted the pros. The Arizona Daily Star had a tribute article for them. With all the incredible memories, I had to link to them.
Add your website to this impressive page of links that can enhance any athlete's game for just $10 per year.

Big buck bowling for amateurs. Divisions for all bowlers for that pot of gold!
NOTE: Joey Pirani of the Huntsville All Star League (Alabama), created an award for bowling websites and I was given the award in May 1999. He changed the link after I got this website going. Due to him possibly removing some great links for bowling, I have honored his awards here. I have only listed months that an award was awarded and the website is still active after over 14 years. Many of the links have been broken, pages not available, websites up for sale and have been sold.
With the plethora of bowling sites appearing and the many requests for links, I decided to "award" the better ones. Here are my rules:
