When it comes to bowling equipment, I feel sort of like a pack-rat. Although I sell and trade a lot, I always seem to have around 6 to 20 balls in my possession at one time (currently have 11 drilled and 2 or 3 undrilled). Its not that I dislike any of the equipment (otherwise I would have sold/traded it long ago), but realistically I only use the equipment in some practice sessions, a few leagues, and a couple of tournaments. And most of the time (unless extreme conditions are met), I use the same equipment. With this relatively small amount of bowling I do (by no means do I throw the huge number of games of pro's or regional players - probably 10 to 15 games a week), I always wonder why I keep some much equipment around. I'm not sure I have never "worn-out" a ball before, never throwing more than 50 - 60 games with any ball. Now that I'm thinking about it, by the time I get tired of a ball and move on to something else I have drilled, there most definitely will be a new release that I would rather own. So my question is, how many balls at any one time should any non-professional bowler have? Maybe 5 or 6 to cover just about any condition a person would run into? How many balls does everyone out there own? Of those, how many do you throw on a regular basis? Can a person have too much equipment?
