Possibly fitter bowler? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

titfer

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'bowler?' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are singular nouns.
Perhaps they are linked in a way I don't understand?

'possibly fitter' is the wordplay.
'possibly' indicates anagramming the letters.
'fitter' with letters rearranged gives 'TITFER'.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for titfer that I've seen before include "Fitter (anag.)" , "Cockney rhyming slang for hat" , "A Cockney's hat" , "Hat (informal)" , "tile" .)
