Reviews of the Best Bowling Balls - Storm, Brunswick, Hammer, Ebonite, Columbia:I remember the 1st time I went bowling with my family as a kid and how much fun it was to throw the ball down the alley (I used to call my ball the "spinner" although I never knocked down any pins). In those days you could rent bowling shoes for like $1, find a good used ball (most places never have clean, clear, or custom bowling balls anymore) and hit the bowling lanes like a professional. If you are serious about your bowling game you might consider buying a good bowling ball for yourself. We have reviewed and priced some of the most popular balls for sale today, so hopefully our review will save you time and help you perfect your new hobby. There are so many options (color, weight, grip, scented) for buying a bowling ball so do your research before buying that perfect bowling ball. Usually you can find bowling balls that weigh from 6lbs up to 16lbs and the bigger you are the heavier ball you want. The most popular bowling balls are made by Storm with names like Agent, Special Agent, Double Agent, all of which are in the Master Line family. Storm also makes a bowling ball in the Fire Line family with names like Fired Up, Diablo, Jolt and Paradigm. Check out their website at stormbowling.com for current news and pricing. The Storm Paradigm Domination bowling ball can be purchased for $129.99 which is a great deal considering the quality and life expentancy of their ball.
Used / Clear / Cheap Bowling Balls:If you are a beginning bowler you might want to consider buying a used bowling ball because new equipment can get pretty expensive. Check out usedbowlingballs.com for special deals and great cheap prices. They sell a Columbia Renegade 14lb ball for only $14.99 ( a great price for a label drilled ball). You can also pick up a Columbia Messenger ball on their site for only $19.95 plus shipping. Sometimes buying a used ball is tricky because you can't try it out before you order it online, but the savings alone make it worth the risk. Another popular bowling ball is the clear type (you know where you can almost see thru the ball) that kids seem to love. Clear bowling balls are cool because you can put basically any item in the ball (unless you are a pro bowler and then of course you need to follow league or tournament rules and regulations). Clear balls are very odd looking, and when you have a clear bowling ball you can see directly through the coverstock to the core. The Cranium Pearl Skull Bowling Ball sells for $139.99 and is a very popular item due to its visual allure. Check out more clear balls for sale at bestbowling.com.How to Buy Bowling Equipment Online:If you are a bowler then you have to buy the other bowling accessories like a shirt, bowling shoes, ball cleaner, even shoe covers (we think that is a little overboard). A great resource for bowling merchandise online is bowling.com/shopping/bowling_equipment/ where the prices are fair and the website is easy to use. Some bowlers just show up at their league tournament with their shoes and bowling ball, while others bring a lot of little gadget items to help their game. We tried to list the most common extras that bowlers buy so you can mold your game after the professionals. Check out the following items:
Bowling Ball Bags:Do you want to buy a bowling ball bag? Well if you own a bowling ball and you hit the lanes often you should definitely consider buying a nice bag to carry your balls in (you will look a lot more professional with your peers). Like bowling balls there are hundreds of bowling ball bags you can buy, but we just reviewed a few of the more popular models. The most popular brands we found online were AMF, Elite, Kr, Master, Dexter, and Roto-Grip. Check out the Ebonite Impact Single Black Bowling Bag which cost $29.99 and is a single ball carrier. Another great model is the Storm Streamline 2 Ball Roller Silver/Black Bowling Bag which sells for $59.99 and holds 2 balls - heavy duty carrier. If you are a serious (or professional bowler) then you might consider buying the Columbia 300 EZ Rider 3 Ball Roller Silver/Black Bowling Bag for $82.99 - also has a shoe compartment and big wheels. You can find all these bowling ball bags at bowling.com/shopping/bowling_bags/. The website also sells wristbands, thumb savers, books and instructional videos, cleaners, towels, shoes, bowling shirts, and resin grip bags. Buying a bowling ball bag is a necessity if you buy a good ball because a damaged or scratched ball will definitely affect your average once you hit the lanes.
