NO BOWLING BALL should be left in the cold, it could crack on you, it is a bad idea.

Let me say this.....NO BOWLING BALL IS TO BE LEFT IN THE CAR AT ANY TIME....SUMMER, WINTER, FALL...WHENEVER....

Bowling balls are an investment and just about every company has a roller bag that will fit your needs so take the extra time to roll your bowling balls into a corner of your home or apt.

Modern bowling balls do not like extremes of temperature and/or humidity. They should be kept at room temperature at all times.

You should never leave your bowling ball in extreme temperature conditions (cold, hot).  The coverstocks are sensitive to temperature changes, and extreme temperature changes can cause cracks.

OK here's an analogy for you.  Would you think your ability in bed would be diminished if you took dry ice and applied it to your sack for say an hour?  Assuming the answer is yes we could therefore ascertain do not put your balls in ultra cold weather.  If it is no then.....I give up!

ROFL

I would only allow that if the ice was being applied by a beautiful goddess's  mouth.
