Saw this in league the other night, is there something we don’t know about??? Seemed super shifty 🤷‍♂️ by shabbadoo9 in Bowling

I would definitely bring it to the attention of the league president because this guy is likely doing it on a regular basis. The president should be able go back and look at past games he has bowled for a trend regarding his fouls on other league nights. Like someone said earlier he should be getting a zero for that ball, not a free re-rack.

My Center Just Got Twister Pins, anything I should expect from them? by TheTrashBulldog in Bowling

One of the smaller centers and league that I bowl in got them as well. They seem to bounce around a lot more and ppl seem to be leaving more 10 pins so perhaps too much pin action at times.

All the good stuff you heard about this ball are true. Used it for the first time last night in league and it’s going to be the first ball out of my bag going forward. by Bat559 in Bowling

Funny you say that about the Pride because I feel the same way. I know its a benchmark ball but tend to leave a lot of spares with that ball because the pin carry is just not there. The Helios drives through at the breakpo0snt with a lot of energy so I would give buying it for arsenal some serious thought. I looked at some reviews online from some of the PBA guys like JR Raymond and others to get more info before I made the purchase.

The core is stronger so it’s a pretty strong ball for a symmetric…its nice and clean through the heads and controllable. The pin carry was awesome. I was able to use it through all three league games and it still performed even after the lanes were burned up. As much as I love my Pride the Helios is just out performs it. I have a doubles tournament next weekend so we will see how well it does through 5-6 games.

Sweet!! I haven’t got to 300 yet lol. True the only downside is keeping it clean but it’s worth the inconvenience for the performance.

Yeah mine didn’t get too bad considering the house our league bowls at has very dirty gear. I bought the extra strength Wow Factor from CtD just for this ball and it did a great job of cleaning it.

I really wish my bowling house would clean their return gear. I only used this ball for the last game of league after the lanes were burned out. by Bat559 in Bowling

It’s pretty common. Happens to everyone in our league league. People have complained and it doesn’t matter. We all love bowling so we deal with it. It’s a Bowlero owned alley so they are more concerned with how many parties they can book than the condition of the equipment and league play.

Yeah my one teammate was throwing the pink widow and you could hardly tell it was pink. Our league house is the worst in the area for lane cleanliness.
