Comments on: So Many Bowling Balls, Which to Choose? http://www.brianhalstrom.com/so-many-bowling-balls-which-to-choose Tue, 07 Feb 2012 21:28:15 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3 By: Brian Halstrom http://www.brianhalstrom.com/so-many-bowling-balls-which-to-choose/comment-page-1#comment-1204 Brian Halstrom Wed, 06 Oct 2010 03:32:17 +0000 http://www.brianhalstrom.com/?p=944#comment-1204 Hey Thomas, I know how the lanes can be at a college tournament. They certainly break down fast, and depending on where you're bowling, you never know what kind of shot you're going to get. What college are you bowling for? For ball recomendations, Storm & Roto Grip have some great balls in their mid performance line. The Tropical Heat series by Storm works very well on medium to drier conditions, as well as Roto Grip's Dark Star. Those balls have pearl coverstocks. As far as going with a urethane ball, it wouldn't be a bad idea depending on where you're going to bowl. I remember bowling tournaments like the Brickyard Classic & Colgate Invitational and the lanes were fried, so a urethane ball would be nice to have just in case you run into any of those conditions. The Storm Natural & Roto Grip Grenade are good options there. Let me know if you have any additional questions about bowling balls or collegiate events you're bowling. Hey Thomas,

The lanes dried out quickly and the black widow bite I have was too much for the lanes. For a dry lane ball I don't know whether to go with a urethane coverstock or a pearl coverstock. It seems to me that the higher rev players seem to like the urethane balls and I'm not a high rev player so I'm leaning towards a pearl one. What do you think? Hi Brian,
