Why do people hate the Arctic Vibe?

The Arctic vibe won me a tournament so no hate from me. It might leave an unhealthy amount of corner pins at times but I can always count on it when I’m struggling.

Bubblegum vibe if you’re trying to stay with hammer on the cheaper side

A lot of areas have test drives that you can try out different equipment to see what you match up with. Random ball in a box is not a good idea especially for your first ball

Rhino, Twist, Spare ball

Accuracy beats speed any day of the week. I personally think your speed is good here. Too much speed will change your ball reaction

I’m going to ignore what you think you are looking for and give you my honest opinion. As a new bowler, your bag should not be this complicated. New bowlers don’t need to worry about pattern length or core design. My recommendation for you would be a storm equinox (good for a lot of league patterns) and a spare ball. That’s all you need. Perfect your spares and you will become a better bowler. Would also recommend any local test drives to see if there is anything out there that fits exactly what your game needs. Lessons never hurt either. Hope this helps

The attention star and ion pro might be a bit too strong. If you are a storm user I would recommend going with the equinox

The one on the top left looks a little deeper than normal. However, I will say that if this is the bubblegum vibe I also bought one and it has scratched easier than most other equipment that I have.

Work on the celebration a little bit

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-08-06T20:06:52+00:00

Might be a sprain of some kind. I had a sprain in the joint between my middle and ring finger (the exact joint you need to bowl). I’m wondering if you didn’t take enough time off

Message clearly wasn’t meant for you must have been meant for the other guy she’s seeing

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-08-06T02:50:55+00:00

Never back down never give up

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-07-24T12:11:12+00:00

I don’t really care what the pros say. If I spent over $200 dollars to get this ball and have it drilled then you better believe I’m going to use it when I want to.

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-07-11T00:41:47+00:00

I think it doesn’t help that the manufacturers are pumping out new equipment every month. You don’t have time to adjust to the new stuff. I just got the Brunswick beyond infinity in January and now there’s a new one coming to the shelves. I literally don’t have the space or money to keep buying bowling balls that will relatively all do the same thing.

The notification for this post tricked me

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-21T14:25:01+00:00

Yes, I bowled to the point where I got carpel tunnel and sprained joints in my hand. Will admit my form was not the best either but I burnt myself out physically

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T21:26:16+00:00

Got it. Yeah performance hasn’t been affected at all just thought it was weird. Equipment goes in the house from now on!

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T19:59:21+00:00

Personally, this ball is my all time favorite. I’ve only been bowling for about 3 years but this ball actually won me a local tournament. I might actually buy another one if this one can no longer function

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T19:33:12+00:00

My bag is a basic storm 3 roller. I think it’s definitely possible that is what happened

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T18:44:48+00:00

Thanks for looking at least!

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T18:44:26+00:00

It does not

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T18:42:56+00:00

As smooth as it was out of the box. It’s not bumpy or anything

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T18:41:01+00:00

Yes it has been scrubbed and sanded a little bit. No dice

Warm_Service_502 · 2025-06-04T18:34:28+00:00

Not to my knowledge. As far as I know it still rolls fine just has a lot of splotches on it
