Bowling ball surface management can be tough at best. There are so many variables in how the lanes will play. The condition of Lane surface between different pairs, consistency in the oil application, ability of the bowler to repeat shots, the list is endless.
For the elite bowler $1,300.00 for a surface scanner might be a viable option. For most of us, our money would be better spent in learning a repeatable process of scuffing and prepping our equipment. Like you guys have said, cleaning and re-scuffing a ball after a night of bowling is the way to go. Two things I always do are, change the factory finish to a surface I can somewhat consistently duplicate and change out scuff pads after 4 or 5 uses.
