help newbi
well i have been bowling for a year now. i throw a straight ball. im looking into getting a ball that i can start hooking the ball. so is there a beginners hooking ball out there
Generally speaking an entry level reactive resin ball with a symmetrical core would be ideal for learning how to throw a hook. Asymmetric cores tend to hook even when not released right. Symmetric will let you know right away if you did it right.Originally Posted by mike6562

so any balls that you would recommend
Check with your proshop. Just about all the major brands have entry level balls. Brunswick,Ebonite,Storm all have balls in their brands that will help get in the swing of things. Good luck. If I can help more let me know.
yeah im going to the pro shop today to talk to him. im looking at a storm natural would tht be a good beginner hook ball
The proshop needs to watch you bowl. There are several things that have to be determined before you fit a ball for someone. It is not like the old days where if you could get to a drill press, you could drill a ball. Now, with different cores and coverstocks everywhere, it is a lot more specialized. Patience. Try to learn everything you can about equipment. I am an old man, still learning though. There are several videos on the internet and books you can read to increase your knowledge. You never stop learning. I started bowling in 1971. Yes, they had bowling back then. The changes since then have been incredible. Something new everytime you turn around. Good luck.
