If it’s your game, make it your ball
Are you still using a house bowlingball? Do you have to use a stranger’s ball, every time you decide to enjoy the sport? That’s like wearing someone else’s shoes. It just doesn’t feel right.
The truth is, you’ll probably enjoying bowling a whole lot more if you had a bowlingball to call your own. When you have your own ball, the game becomes special as you find a source of pride in the sport you love. There’s an identity, a connection between you, the ball and the thrill of the sport. There’s nothing like that powerful, satisfying feel of knowing a ball is yours, completely part of you and your passion for the sport.
Bowling is a satisfying sport. It’s an affordable form of recreation that’s great to share with friends, family and co-workers. What could be more enjoyable than the smooth polish of the lanes, the soft rumble as the ball returns, that satisfying clatter as all the pins go flying? Bowling is a great way to spend an evening, relax and compete against the best of yourself?
It’s a sport that’s even more satisfying the more you can call it your own. People tend to form close relationships to their bowling balls, similar to the love of a motorcycle, guitar or favorite sports jacket. It’s more than an object. It’s an affirming expression of your own identity.
Aside from the satisfaction, owning your own ball might actually improve your game. When you own your own ball, you can customize the finger holes to suit the exact dimensions of your hand, giving you a more satisfying grip that will improve your delivery and performance.
And you can choose your own preference for the ball’s core. The core of the ball is its soul, the point of its weight performance that determines the action of the ball. The core is what makes every ball different. Cores are dynamically balanced to cause the ball to try to stabilize as it rolls down the lane. Heavy centered balls provide for a more solid spin, while other weights will ease its spin.
Make bowling your sport. Get your own ball, one that’s right for you. It will make bowling a more satisfying pastime, a sport you can call your own.
