Title: What weights do these guys throw?
Post by: mrtappedalot on March 05, 2005, 07:45:08 AM

Just to settle a dispute between me and a buddy... He thinks the majority of pro bowlers use 14/15 lb balls, while I still think the most PBA bowlers use 15/16 lb balls.

For those of you who know some about the pros, (national or regional) what percentage does each ball weight account for?

im not sure, but if i had to guess(this is only a guess)
most 15, but the 14-16 thing is way closer than you think

15-65%
16-20%
14-15%

I am sure there are a few that use 14 but most are using 15 or 16. Sounds like a good majority use 15 though.

Though I don't know how much, I'm pretty sure 16 is more commonplace than 14, and 15 is the king, so that would mean more PBA bowlers use 15/16 rather than 14/15.
