Title: Bowling Gloves
Post by: samus1003 on October 08, 2015, 10:27:03 AM

I just purchased my first ball and go bowling at least once a week. I wanted some info on gloves for the following reasons. I had both broken a bone in my wrist and dislocated another one in a sport injury around the time I was 13. Every so often I get discomfort in my wrist if I play alot. Now it's not so much painful as it is distracting when I'm bowling. Should I consider a glove for wrist support. And also any recommendations?

I don't think a full glove (assuming one with wrist support) is necessary.  I too have occasions where old wear and tear starts my wrist aching at times to the point of great distraction.  In those circumstances I will something like this and it provides all the support I need to stay comfortable in those situations.
