I have a couple scratches on my new Rock about 2" long and 1/16" to 1/8" deep. Luckily they are not in the Track. The center I bowl at that caused them wont do anything about it. What's the best way to get rid of these scratches? Would resurfacing take them out or should I just not worry about it since it isn't in the Track?

I can understand your concern about scratches. If they are not in the Track, don't worry about it too much until time for re-surfacing. Understandably, because it is a new ball, I don't blame you for being upset. Many enters have taken the attitude that they are not responsible for any ball damage unless there are chunks taken out of the ball. Re-surfacing can wait, just bowl well and dis-regard the scratches for the time being.
Good luck,
Don

The Fish Bowl...I woudn't resurface a ball this new unless you absolutely had to. BTW scratches that deep (1/8") might not come out with a resurface and if they did it would require you to make the entire ball that much smaller! Sometimes it's better to just leave this type of damage alone.
Later, Bowlerdude
