here's some theory and a lot of esoteric knowledge that goes into bowling a perfect game.
Muscle memory alone will only get you as far as 6-8 strikes in a row if you're playing on a lane surface pattern that you're familiar with.
There are different oil patterns used for bowling lanes for a wide variety of reasons, on oily patches the ball slips and the dry parts obviously has more friction.
The lane in this clip looks like it's full slip at the starting line and has gradually less oil the further you go down the lane with barely any close to the pins.
The optimal throw here is one off either side with a spin causing it to shift to a 45° angled approach vector aimed betweens pins 1 & 3 or 1 & 2.
The ball will slip freely while spinning at first, as it slips down the lane friction increases gradually, causing it to change trajectory until the dry patch full sends it into the pins.
If this was all there was to it the perfect game wouldn't be all that rare though.
The next problem that you'll face is the fact that the balls drag oil with them when they're going down the lane.
Your muscle memory is less reliable the further you get into a game of bowling.
I've got a little bit more but this reply is already way too bloated for a topic as boring as bowling.
