Still love the game but had to quit because of my left leg amptation
High game 299 x 5 High sanctioned series 805 (1989)
I bring 3. An aggressive asymmetric, an aggressive symmetric, and a urethane spare ball. Lately, I've mostly just been using the aggressive symmetric as my go to ball. Just not enough oil on the conditions I normally play on to be able to reliably control the asymmetric.
Curr. League Avg: 203

I bowl in a second shift league that can play differently from week to week. The 5 person handicap league before us consists of older generation high handicap bowlers. Though it's only one house I bowl in, it's like travel league, you never know what you'll get when second shift starts. Also, it depends on who is working the lanes that day too.....
I bring 3 to 5 balls a week.
I always have 3.
My Vandal, Thug Unruly & T Zone for spares.
EDITED on 6/14 - It's now 4. Adding my Vintage Danger Zone.

I throw one ball even in spares. I'm a bit old school but I'll just adjust my hand position to get different reactions
I bring 3. One for heavy oil, one for medium and one for light
