need reccomendations for a new ball.
« on: September 18, 2005, 09:10:11 AM »
I am relatively new to bowling ( around 5 months bowling) And i averge around 150, and ive decided to upgrade from my groove urethane to something that hooks more. My friend has reccomended roto-grip and from the reviews rotogrip is a very well liked and trusted company.

My style of bowling

Being a bowling noob, I start at the first arrow(From the right) throw it along the gutter straight and let it hook right at the end( I think it's called backend?)

So, if any of you could reccomend a ball for that style of play. I Would greatly appericate any advice.

Seing as you are playing up the gutter where it is usally dry, i would recomend the new Roto Mercury. YOu can probobly go with one of the sonice but the mercury looks hot so i would go with that.
