All you have to do is pay for plug and drill, and the stuff already comes in a bag.  Bowling balls are expensive (especially here in Canada), so stealing 6+ balls is at least $1000, and there's a bag, shoes, bowling accessories, etc.  The risk is huge if you get caught though....sigh....I don't get why some people steal equipment.  I wonder if they actually steal it, or if they accidentally take it.

EX, sorry to hear about your equipment being stolen...but since you're a Track Int. Amateur/Pro Shop Staff, doesn't that mean Track sends you balls every now and then (especially the newer releases)?  Can't you just ask them for more balls?  teeheheeh, LOL!

Yeah, all you have to do is pay for plug and drill, for 6 balls at most proshops in the area thats somewhere in the 250-300 dollar range if you get everything plugged and redrilled. Not to mention the fact that if my stuff was stolen, I would call up every pro shop in a 500 mile radius with my serial numbers, so they would have to take the balls somewhere out of state to get them drilled.

Isn't it easier to just break into a house and steal a few grand in stuff/money and buy the equipment if you are that much of a bowler? maybe drug dealing? Or better yet, just work a friggin job, its a much better return in the long run. And plus, I would say 6 balls are only worth 400-500 drilled, so the chance of getting caught just isn't worth it in my book.

Well, thankfully all that was taken was 2 2ball totes and 4 bowling balls.

I called the local pro shops to put in the names of the balls that were taken that day, and gave them serial numbers. SO hopefully they will turn up, but it has been a week, I am probably S-O-L. Live and learn I guess. I guess I expected more of people in the bowling community.

Hey Happy Easter all, it is almost done but it was a good day. Sorry about the stuff that got taken Ex, I had a friend who actually couldn't bowl in league this saturday because someone took his stuff. I can't stand that kind of bull.

Not as bad as golfers... I've had many friends get clubs stolen, and I've had my putter and driver both stolen at one point or another.
