Finding the Best Bowling Ball for You

 

The best bowling ball for you is one that will be the right size, feel and weight for you personally. There are many different types of bowling balls on the market today and they come in all different styles and price ranges. You will want to decide what your needs are and what your budget is before you choose the bowling ball for yourself.

Before you go out and buy the first ball you come across, try out several different ones. First, you get your new ball properly drilled for your hand and arm perfectly so that it fits perfectly into your throwing motion. An ill-fitting ball makes it harder to release well and score well. Also, the average alley-to alley balls are generally fairly new and are made of cheap materials and have picked up a lot of dents and imperfections throughout the years that make it roll differently. You can also find a variety of different balls in bowling ball bags. Some of these bags are designed for more serious players, but they are also designed to keep your ball safe from scratches and other damage that can occur if your ball is exposed to the elements.

Once you have your ball in the bag, check the weight to make sure it's balanced well. Most bowling balls have some sort of weighting system that is weighted at the bottom of the ball for stability, but the rest of the ball is weighted at the top for more weight. Make sure that your ball is not too heavy or too light. The best way to find this out is by trying the ball on the lane and observing how it feels.

Once you have found the ball that you want to use, you will want to put it in the bag. Make sure that the ball is secure and that there is not any air escaping around the ball. This will help your ball roll consistently and make sure that your throw and release is accurate and clean.

If you are not using a bowling ball bag, you will want to lay the ball down in the dirt and throw it. Make sure that the weight distribution is right and that the ball is stable on its release and does not wobble. and rock as you toss it. This will help you know where the ball is going and how well it is rolling. and will allow you to release the ball correctly.

To be successful at bowling, you must practice making the perfect shot. With the right equipment, practice and patience you will be able to consistently hit the ball with the right amount of spin and distance.
