I don't believe in using a spare ball. You should be able to use your Strike ball for any spare on any condition.

Philosophically, I don't believe in using a spare ball, either. However, because of the lousy lane surfaces here, I use a separate ball for spares in order to extend the lifespans of my strike balls.

I mostly agree with the one ball theory but..... I only have one spare I use mine on and it's the 10 pin. Everything else is the first ball.

Storm Football. Just like the waterboy.

I don't really play cards and I am not 79, but it fits together somehow.

although i can throw my "strike ball" as straight as an arrow i usually use a plastic ball for more margin of error. my current spare ball is a brunswick usa viz-a-ball. a NOTRE DAME viz-a-ball will arrive shortly and will be put to good use.

For me, it's the Columbia Blue Dot. Mine punched in at 90 on the durometer at the '96 Mixed Nationals in Reno....the fellow checking the ball hardness did a double take when he saw 90, until he rolled the ball over and saw that it was indeed a Blue Dot!

Blue Dot....don't go bowling without one!

Urethane Red Claw Pearl. It can also double as a stike ball if needed.
I've also got a pink hammer under the bed.

Storm Football for left side spares. I can use my first ball most of the time, but my conversion average for 4-7 and 4 or 7 pins has risen since my coach convinced me to use plastic.
