Title: Re: Number of bowling balls
Post by: SleepOnIce on November 19, 2008, 07:36:01 AM: I'll probably buy 3 this upcoming year. A particle to see if I like the reaction, a weak pearl, and I'll probably get another Anger when the one I have goes down/I get tired of having it resurfaced every month.

Post by: LordWalrus on November 19, 2008, 07:38:17 AM: I need four. I have eight. Of the eight, it turns out only two are balls I need. So, still looking for 2 more that actually work.

Post by: dechrist on November 19, 2008, 07:42:39 AM: I'm set (bought one in July) through the end of the season. I'm thinking about getting a Sauce for PBAex next summer.

So maybe 2...

Post by: dizzyfugu on November 19, 2008, 07:45:11 AM: Well, looking at my needs... none. But actually I found myself rejuvenating my arsenal and trying to fill gaps (mostly with older stuff), so I end up with about 4 balls a year. Addicted... need therapy

I just carry 3 balls. one solid, one pearl and spare ball.This year so far I am just using 1 strike ball for 3 games. I am going to buy 1 new ball for next year. I will wait till year after next and buy another one.

Post by: Monster Pike on November 19, 2008, 10:39:34 AM: Well, I got a Gravity (part of last season) & Dimension for this year. I wound up using my Attitude Shift mostly & my regular Shift when the shot breaks down some. I might get the Virtual Gravity or Break S75 for next season, but I'll wait to see how the economy will shake out first.

Post by: Locke on November 19, 2008, 11:59:59 AM: I carry 12 to most tournaments and I am looking at replacing 4-6 this season because they are all more than 4 years old and just completely dead and ripped up. So it is going to be an expensive season for me... O.o

Post by: Reijn on November 19, 2008, 12:07:25 PM: Rolling 2 right now. The Sauce and a Track TKO. Will likely be expanding to a third with a Psycho or Acid.

Title: Re: Number of bowling balls
Post by: Xcessive_Evil on November 19, 2008, 01:02:09 PM: I have 9(soon to be 10)total.

I take 8 to tourneys(what I choose depends on the pattern).

I take 5 to league, but only wind up using 3 max-and that's on a bad night.

Does it really matter?
Title: Re: Number of bowling balls
Post by: Juggernaut on November 19, 2008, 04:35:38 PM: How many do you NEED? One is plenty
How many will I buy? Who knows, usually 2 or 3

I don't usually buy them because I need them, it is just a part of the sport I have come to enjoy, trying new stuff to see what it will do compared to my "tried and true" stuff, and it generally isn't that much different.
