Hi All,

What is a good spare ball to add to my black widow pearl?  Thanks!

I'm partial to my Spare Tire, but the wife likes her Aquarium Vis-a-ball.

Plastic is plastic.  White Dots are cheap.  Take your pick.  Can't go wrong.

And be careful, clear balls HOOK!  I bowled side-by-side with someone who threw a clear ball (THS) from 25 to 10 - 8 in a row!

i have the lane #1 clear diamond ball and love it. its a two in one really. ball is very hard hitting on burned out, fried to death, desert dry lanes.

# of bowling balls = too many
highest game = not high enough
league avg. = its getting there
tournaments won = let me get back to u on this one

It would all depend on what you like. There are all kinds of spare balls that will work. Just pick one that you like and buy it.

I have a Blue Dot and it's showing small cracks already near a finger hole (about 50-100 shots roughly). Honestly it doesn't look like it will hurt anything, but looks like it may eventually get worse.

I say the cheaper the better unless there's a plastic out there that can take a beating that may cost a little more.

Not to mention you're throwing it near corners where the ball is likely to bounce and hit things it shouldn't be.

go get the black widow spare ball if you're able to. I think it would look pretty cool sitting there together

Hey! I made it all the way to the gutter. Shouldn't I get like 20 points or something?

If it's still under warranty you should be able to get it replaced.  --  JohnP
