Anyone heard of or seen this bags before?
« on: February 28, 2005, 03:20:18 AM »
I was bowling in a tournament yesterday and the kid I was bowling against walked in with 3 two ball bags. I've never seen these before, but they defiantly appealed to me as much easier to carry than my 3-ball roller. They basically looked like small duffelbags for bowling balls, and each held two balls in them. These weren't your conventional 2 ball totes. I'm not even sure who makes them. I'm really considering something like this, as a replacement to my bulky 3 ball roller which is just a pain in the neck. Anyone ever seen these or have any clue what I'm talking about? If so, I'd also like to know where I can get some. Thanks!

Do they still make them, or have they been discontinued?

Nah, still none of those....these are pretty small actually. They are only big enough to fit the two balls in and little else. They aren't really the traditional tote so to speak.

I'm pretty sure that Columbia made bags like the one you describe - just big enough to hold two bowling balls, and you could basically see the ball outlines in the bag. No room for shoes or anything else.
I don't know if they still make them, though. You may want to check with your local pro shop as they might have older model bags like these in stock.

I have 2 of these they are black from ebonite has foam on the bottom to hold balls in place barely enough room to squeeze shoes on top and zip them. I traveled with them they held up nicely and tag was still there from airline handlers.

I think that this would be much easier to carry a few of these rather than bump around with a big old roller. I'm going to look into these in the future as a replacement. Thanks for the help guys!
