The pba has a new thing they call the world series of bowling where 250 bowling can take on the world. Unlike the pba’s normal format where there are player already exempt and other have to go throw a per tornament qualifer round before they can enter the main event, but in the world series dosent have exempt players.

How to get rid of the 10 pin or 7 pin. When your a high power player like me you don’t leave to many 10 or 7′s. When you leave a 10 pin there are a few ways to get rid of it, but there are 2 kinds of ten pins, a weak and a ringing. A weak ten pin is when the 6 pin goes around the ten and a weak is where the 6 pin laying in the gutter next the the ten pin.

 When you leave a weak ten pin your ball is hitting to weak or not driving, now you want to slow your ball speed down or change to a higher reactive ball, by doing this your ball will hit harder and drive through the pins.

 When leaving a ringing ten pin your ball is hitting too late in the pocket or your angle to the pocket is too great, so now you want to move your line (where your playing) so your ball hooks a little earlier or so your ball gets a lower angle to the pocket.

The 7 pin is caused by your ball hitting too light in the pocket or hitting really heavy in the pocket. when leaving the weak 7 you want to move so your ball so it will hit or roll harder into the pocket, but if you leave the solid 7 you should speed up your ball or move your line so you have some more oil.

For a lefty just do the opposite .

Well, when you have a finger tip ball you always wanna put your ring and middle finger in the ball first, then you put your thumb in the ball.

I’m Henry Turtwin 6’1″ 180 lbs. I throw the ball between 18-20 MPH. I also have around 400 RPMS on the ball. 

I’m bowling with the Storm Charge in the Beacon Bowl in Naples, FL.

The Charge is 16lbs. Has a 4″ pin and is drilled to go long and have a strong backend reaction.  The Charge is a very controllable, and has a strong backend. The Charge is made for light to mid oily lane conditions.

I Rate this ball 90 out of 100

 I’m bowling on carry down after league bowling.

Do High performance bowling balls make a difference in bowling? there are many opinions on this subject. I’ll give you mine.

High performance bowling balls have different coverstocks than mid performance bowling balls. Some of these coverstocksare; Reactive Pearl, C4 solid Reactive,  particle, particle pearl. With all these different coverstocks, the high performance balls have more options than the mid performance bowling balls. The coverstock doesn’t make up a bowling ball, it’s the combination of the coverstock and core.

       High performance bowling balls do make a difference in a few ways. The first way would be that they give you more options then mid-performance bowling balls. Another way is that in tournaments where the oil patters can be hard a high performance bowling ball will be better then a mid-performance bowling ball.

     Mid-performance bowling balls only give you limited options in categories such as length, overall hook, and angle to the pocket, while the high performance bowling balls will give you way more options and different looks at the pocket.

     Another thing to keep in mind is that the coverstock of the bowling ball can only last so long. A way to keep your ball hitting hard and reacting the same, time and time again, is to clean your ball or balls after bowling. Another thing is that you can go to a pro shop and ask them to refinish your ball. When your ball gets refinished, they use a special oil remover to get rid of the oil that has soaked into your coverstock.
