How to know my specs
I really wish I knew how to find my ball speed, Rev rate, rotation etc. Buying balls and drilling would eventually cost less if I knew these things and quite possibly make me a better bowler.

It's accurate enough for something you can do yourself at the lanes and is a widely used and excepted method to find your stats.

lol I look up at the score and it tells me my speed, have no clue if it's accurate....I can throw real hard at a 10 pin and throw a normal strike ball and it's still in the 12 mph area. So I really do not trust it...
