I clean them up and take them down during the high school travel league and give them away to the kids.
What do you do with your old equipment?
Some sell, some give away, some keep forever.
How about donating it to your local high school team or youth program?

Just keep all the old balls in the basement.. Good suggestion to get rid of them to a high school team, however most of the balls in my basement are from my youth days years ago that only weigh 12 lbs, also, I don't think there are any high school leagues in my area.
i don't have any old equipment to give do anything with yet.
I do have half a ball though that sits behind my bed as decoration.
guy on my team, his ring finger was drilled into the pin, came back from the ball return with a crack like 3/4 of the way around the ball. me and another guy took it to the bar with us after and took turns smashing it against the train tracks behind the bar. it took like 12-15 throws to crack the dam thing in half. we each took a side
i have just bowled for a year or two, so no equipment that is old enough to give away.. lol
bowling started 2 mths ago.. don't think i'll have anything to give away any time soon
Most of my old equipment I end up giving to my teammates if they can use it. I still keep my old Ebonite Red and Grey Wolf pearls.

Giving them away, would cause Pain. (
Made with your balls!!! It would be hard ,, for me to give any of mine away!!
Balls should be kept, and played with on occasion.... belive me, i think you would miss them if they were gone!

You know what this old retired Iron Worker would say: ( If you got the balls, Keep em)!! Giving them away, can cause Pain. (

What about the inner satisfaction of knowing you could be helping a young bowler who could one day end up being the best of all time?
