Spareball weight

One other thing: unless you have your heart set on that zombie ball, you might consider some other choices. Most spare balls are pretty much the same, with a few exceptions such as the taboo spare that has a core. Id bet you can find a cheaper spare ball that performs just as well.

Your spare ball should be the same weight as your strike ball as the others have said.

Your profile says you use a #15 ball, you like throwing #11 house balls, you were thinking about getting a #12 ball and have now decided on a #14 zombie ball.

15>11>12>14 pounds to really improve your game, you should settle on one weight. If your main ball is 15 your spare should be 15, going to 14 to get a slight speed increase is a option though.

Unless your a little kid or real old and/or have physical problems a 11 or 12 pound ball is too light.

Most young guys who throw those are the open bowlers that just want to throw the big Hollywood shot (They go out palm a light house ball on a dry lane and swing the lane)

My ball is a 15 just a mix up in numbers.

Would love to check out some more suggestions.
Was just going to get a zombie for brand loyalty.

Does anyone know if the On The Ball Bowling balls are any good for a spareball?
There is something I would love to do in honor of my Dad and I tink it would be awesome to bowl with.

Fairly sure those otb balls are just a straight up no thrills plastic. So I believe would work like any other plastic ball. I'm sure if you shot them an email they could clarify for you.
