Introduction


Here on this site you will find information that you did not know about, that you can use to improve your game. Because lets face it if you could improve your average by just 10 pins a game wouldn't you have more fun bowling? That's what this site is all about, spreading my years of knowledge to help others enjoy bowling as much as I do, and by doing this hope to grow interest in the sport of bowling. The information alone won't turn you into a pro, only hard work and practice to the tune of 50 to 100 games a week will do that.

Proper Ball Drilling

In the last post I talked about how I had not bowled on the THS - ( typical house shot ) for several years other than as the occasional sub. So I no longer had any bowling balls drilled in the proper way as to give me an advantage on the THS. After I had a couple of balls drilled for the THS I started to score much higher and with much less effort. For the first time in over 3 years I have started in a THS and will finish this league, bowling a full season in a THS league, with not only the proper bowling balls for the condition but just as important having them custom fitted and drilled properly as well.
Proving my point, - Since I had those new balls drilled I have bowled a total of only 24 games ( that's 8 weeks of 3 games each ) in this one house ( Vestavia Bowl ) and have bowled the 2 series mentioned in the previous post and now the first 2 weeks of this new league have bowled a 758 and 707. Which included a 279 - 258 - and the first 300 in the league, with a current average of 244. I am sure, as I am human, I will have the inevitable bad week that will lower my average slightly. But it will be interesting to see where my average is at the end of this summer league.

So as you can see. There is a HUGE advantage in having your own professionally chosen and fitted bowling ball. So YES it is worth EVERY DOLLAR it will cost to have that done, as you can see by my experience above as well as going into the future.

Let me add one foot note : If you are new to the high tech bowling equipment or are short on money as we all are right now. You can purchase a good used ball. Most pro shops have a good selection of good used bowling balls.
Because ya see, the 2 bowling balls I had drilled recently for the THS are the Storm Prodigy, that came out back in June 2010 and a Storm Virtual Gravity that came out back in November 2008. Both of which I purchased off the USED ball rack at the Pro Shop.
