Thread: New ball high school student

    Default New ball high school student

    hey guys im a senior high school bowler who averages a little over a 200. I use a columbia freeze at the moment. My style is medium revs with a smooth backend at about 15.5 miles an hour. lately my ball has lost some of the backend and smooth curve. Im wondering what ball to get to suit my style. I bowl second arrow and i dont have a violent backend. it's more of a gradual curve into the pocket. any advice would be welcome.

    One of the balls to consider would be a Storm 2Furious strong but not too violent. Also Roto Grip Dark Star. A Little stronger piece still at a good price point would be the Storm Tropical Heat Hybrid

    If you haven't had it done, you might have the ball surface redone. To get the texture back on it.

    thanks for the advice guys...i dont think resurfacing it would help because its a medium to dry oil ball and it works really well on those conditions but im looking for a heavy oil ball....what do you guys think of the storm prodigy?

    The Prodigy is the most versatile ball on the market, in my opinion. It's always the first choice I tell people for heavier conditions.

    If you like your freeze you might want to check out Columbia's new ball the Outburst. Rolls really smooth and is for heavier oil.
