Lichstein's 1995 Ball Guide

                         LICHSTEIN'S '95 BALL GUIDE


This chart, updated annuallu by Larry Lichstein, is based primarily on his
scrutiny of the equipment in the hands of professionals on Tour conditions.
Note that ball speed, axis tilt, revolutions, angle of entry and other factors
affect ball reaction, including the oiling pattern and ability of the bowler.
The list also includes bowling balls not seen or used on Tour, whereby the
information comes mainly from the manufacturer of the particular model
mentioned. But they are listed because one just might be the right one for
you.
