i believe that it's all a matter of preference.  choos a ball by your weight.  There is not much difference between 16 and 15.  The impact at the pocket is pretty much the same.  However, when you drop 2 lbs, there is a big difference.

alot of the pba players switched to 15's because they play alot of games. you'd be tired to if you play the whole day.

  i use to throw 15's and most of the times i was overthrowing it.  it just didn't feel right. now i throw 16's for better control and accuracy.

i also agree with...ChinaManB  except the for #5.

1. I have no problem with fatigue with it yet.
2. I have used #15 and my speed seems to fast....missing breakpoint.
3. I have a significant amount of cash invested in #16 equipment.
4. I find that #16 stuff is cheaper to buy new or used on-line.
5. I am a real man therefore I throw #16! LOL... Here comes the bashing!
