Is my ball too heavy (14 lbs)

[scottymoney]

I used a wrist brace for a month and a half after I hurt my wrist. It helped and kept me pain free while bowling. I didn't use it last night as I am back to 100%. I did not see any real difference in my game with or without it.

Yeah honestly the weight didn't feel nearly as bad with the brace on. I threw a couple of frames with the brace off as well with no pain. I think it comes down to conditioning more than anything since I'm still pretty new to bowling I'm using muscles that aren't normally getting much use. I'd recommend a brace to any new bowler now.

Glad to hear it worked out well for you. There's nothing worse than having to put up with pain during and after bowling.
The muscle memory will get better the more you bowl and you will start to have less aches and pains.

Now lets see if we can help you out with your game. If you can take a video of you shooting 3 or 4 frames and post it we'll offer a few suggestions to help you get those scores up. One thing about this game, the higher the game you shoot the more you want to come back to beat it. We can help you get there. Good luck.
