Yes, you can hit the jack in lawn bowls, but doing so is a strategic move. When a player strikes the jack, it can potentially change the position of the bowls and the game’s dynamics. However, hitting the jack can also result in losing the original scoring position, so players must weigh the risks and benefits before attempting it.

In lawn bowls, the distance of 23 meters is measured from the mat's front edge where the bowler delivers the bowl to the jack. This means it is 23 meters from the mat to the jack, not from either end of the center line. The center line serves as a guideline for the placement of the mat but does not change the measurement to the jack.
The jack used in lawn bowls is typically a small, spherical ball that measures between 3.5 to 4.5 inches (approximately 9 to 11 cm) in diameter. It weighs around 14 ounces (about 400 grams). The jack is usually colored white or yellow, making it easily visible on the green.
The bias on lawn bowls is the side of the lawn bowl that is heavier. Different types of bowls will have stronger biases and depending on where the weight is in the bowl it might have a gradual lean or a strong hook turn.
