so she requested i get her one last time we went bowling. she is wanting to bowl with a 11lb-10lb ball. I read online that the lighter weight balls dont have cores well the anaconda didnt is this true of every ball? according to what i read some have generic cores and some have none at all. i thought about finding her a tornado or something less aggressive .she wants a bezerk but i duno if thats what she needs starting off then again i started with an aggressive ball. but i regretted it

For the most part that's true, below about #12 most balls use a generic core. There are a few that have a high tech core, but you have to research a lot to see which ones do.

IMO once you get that light in a ball, it doesn't make enough difference to worry about.

Also the Berserk the 13-12 has a different core and thinner shell than the 14-16 balls do.

The Motiv Ascent uses a decent core in their 11lb balls . It is the Recon core. As my wife throws 11lb I just got her both the solid and the pearl. The Missing Link and Hooks from Global also use real cores rather than pancakes

Does she hook the ball, or is she going straight at it? If she's going straight, and not worried too much about scores, do what my wife did, pick out a pretty one. Maybe some day she will listen to my instructions, and learn to bowl.
