Re: Good News from the PBA - bad news too by Joe Bowler @ 55 minutes 30 seconds ago

The amateur contestants would have to want to become professional bowlers. To make it more attractive, how about $100,000 plus the 1-year exemption? That ought to be enough to fund the winner's first year on tour. Where to get the prize money? Ho

Re: Ball Speed Not Matching Revs? by Atochabsh @ Today at 07:28 AM

This is an old thread. So sorry to just jump in. But still the ball speed is also effected by the lane condition and the coverstock of the ball. If a bowler throws two balls, a reactive and a plastic spare ball.....in the course of a usual game,

Re: aggressive layouts on weaker balls by Atochabsh @ Today at 07:21 AM

There's so many choices now, then back even 10 years ago. But coverstock is still the primary driving force in matching up a ball to the bowler. The problem, I think, lays with the bowler now really knowing what condition they are on. Because &

Lifetime best series -- practice pays off by brettbolt @ Today at 05:20 AM

In my Friday night league I bowled 178, 182, 192 for a 552 series. That beats my previous lifetime best of 540. Our team won all 3 games. After 3 years of bowling I decided that I needed to practice more. So for the last few weeks I've practiced 2

Re: Dark Star Video by puffer @ Today at 05:13 AM

Awesome video and interesting layout on the DarkStar. One of my favorite balls was the Pluto. I switched from 14# to 15# and sold it but was thinking of replacing it with the DarkStar or Riot. I would be interested in hearing your opinion on the diff

Re: Storm Invasion by puffer @ Today at 03:39 AM

Just a little perspective on the Invasion. I debated getting this ball as well - thinking it would be too strong for THS and depending on what house it is I think it would be in some houses that are bone dry. However when I finally bought one I was p

He had a decent 08-09 season, making match play quite a few times and 2 shows. But a poor WSOB showing really hurt him this season in terms of points. Speaking of poor WSOB showing, what happened to Dino Castillo? He's been one of the most consisten

Re: Storm Hy-Road by B-Hammer @ Today at 02:24 AM

My take on the benchmark ball is that it's the middle ball that you base what your going to do off of it's reaction. If it's too oily you switch to a more aggressive ball, if it's dry you go to the dry ball. There also is a good chance that it's ju

Well, tomorrow is the day I get a ball. I haven't decided yet. What is a benchmark ball? and I kind of don't want the reign, if anything I want the virtual Gravity, money for bowling balls is not an issue. I just want to take it one step at a time.
