    Will do! I'm already way better than I was when I was using the house balls.

    Nice, good choice, entry level ball will get you started out on the right foot. I left the game for 15 years, then came back in 2010. I bought a Freeze, it's an entry level ball just like the polar ice, and I still have it. It got me going, and I still have it, I use it as a spare ball, or when the lanes get dry it becomes my strike ball.
    Trying not to suck, one day at a time.

    Stamps......... Excellent choice in ball. get some good practice in and get into a mens league if you haven't already done so. In a few months, you might be looking for something a little more aggressive, for the nights you ball isn't working due to oily conditions that may change during the league. You're on the right track...go for it.

    By the way your next ball probably should be in the 180 -195 range (perfect scale - Bowlingball.com). That'll give you more friction on oil.

    Thanks for the tip Bob. I'll remember to get a ball in that range the next time I'm buying one which as it turns out might be sooner rather than later. The lanes at my bowling alley are always wet, making my Polar Ice a bit less effective.
