The pocket is the "sweet spot" in a Bowling shot. If you are a right handed bowler, it is between the head pin (number one) and number three pin (numbers one and two if you are a lefty). If your speed, rotation, timing, and the bowling gods willing, are all in synch, the results should be a stike (ten pins in one shot).

In bowling what side is the Jersey side?

If you are a right handed bowler your natural pocket would be the 1-3. If you throw a ball that hits the 1-2 pocket, that would be considered the 'Jersey' or "Brooklyn' side. It is just the opposite for a lefty. A lefty's pocket would be the 1-2 and if they threw a ball that hit the 1-3 pocket, that would be considered 'Jersey' or 'Brooklyn'.

What is a high flush hit in bowling?

Hitting the pocket flush is where the ball curves towards the space between headpin and the 3 pin for right handed bowlers or headpin and the 2 pin for left handed bowlers and perfectly hits the center of this gap. If the ball hits more of the headpin instead of centered in that gap, it is a high flush hit.
