I try to pull out my tournament stuff once a week. I really just shift stuff around. I'll take 4 non-tourney and 2 tourney balls to the alley to throw pretty much every day, that way, I get to throw my tourney stuff as well as just practice without wasting my good balls away.
As far as tournaments go, I bowl practically every weekend in some kind of tournament, so I get to throw them weekly anyway. Usually I'll bowl league with my tournament balls on Saturday, so that by Sunday morning, I've had a feel. As a general rule: practice with my tournament stuff ONLY the day before a tournament.

For a game based on the principles of science and math, bowling sure does have a bad habit of being illogical.
