To Whom It May Concern:

First of all let me say that ballreviews.com is a most helpful site, which I visit daily to research balls for my growing arsenal. What would be of great help for me, and possibly other, and I know that this would most likely be an ambitious thing to do, because everyone is busy, but I would like to somehow see the top ten balls based on reviews and categorize them as follows: recreation bowlers, entry-level bowlers [avg. score less than 150], intermediate bowlers, advanced, and expert. Or, another way is to take the top ten balls based on reviews and catagorize them thusly: dry conditions, light to medium, medium, med to heavy, and heavy.

The reason why I suggest this is because of the myriad of ball reviews offered on this site makes my head spin, and one moment I'm amped about going after one ball, only to change my mind to go after another ball because of some of the great reviews.

One last suggestion, it may help if you only do reviews for balls that are currently on the market, and take away the retired balls. Or, only show current year reviews.

Great site, very helpful!

That other site does that. There isn't a "ranking" or scoring system for balls here, and there's no distinction between discontinued and current-line balls.

It would be nice to have a standard form for reviews that include things like the bowler's average or skill level, PAP, rev rate, speed, tilt, rotation, oil condition, layout, surface,...

There could be several different forms for different level bowlers. The "beginner" form might leave out most of those fields, while the advanced form might put in more detail.
