Are they really $12.99 PER sole? ( according to BB.com ) if so that to me is a ripoff.. also how long do your soles usually last? Or maybe  how long are they "supposed to last?

Last, which soles do you guys all use the most?

In one house with wood lanes  I use a 6, and on synthetics I use an 8

Im wearing etonics.. I linked the soles above.. and like I said I use the s6's for the wood approaches since they seem to be a little less tacky than the synthetics ( which i use the 8s for ) also both houses are humid as hell , so that im guessing will add to the tackiness


As for amount of bowling.. lol Its been alot. I got a $89 unlimited pass and go BOTH days they oil the lanes .. So ill probably bowl 10-15 games on monday and thursday  on fresh oil, then 4 games tuesdays for league

averaging , id say 25-30 games a week never more than 30 ( anymore ) some times ill do 6/6 and 4 for leagues , so thats 16.. all depends .

I need to pick up one of those brushes to.. didnt really know it helkps out the soles that much.. What does it do? just keep the fibers loose?

i bowl probably as much as you and usually have to buy a new set of sole and heel every year since i pretty much never change them. i use H1 and S2. to me its better than buying a 40-50 dollar pair of shoes every few years since SSTs will last 5+ years
