      <image:title>Join US - Lawn Bowl Bias</image:title>
      <image:caption>Lawn bowls have a bias on one side of the bowl. The bias is the sole reason for the bowl bending on its journey up the green. There is no technique used by the bowler to make this turning action happen.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Join US - Lawn Bowl Track Bias</image:title>
      <image:caption>In the image above we see that a bowl will take a certain trajectory, rather than being able to go straight. This is because bowls are made with one side actually smaller than the other side. A bowl will, therefore, always turn toward the “small” side – see the lower drawing. This side is identified on each bowl by a smaller circle imprinted on that side.</image:caption>
