Anyone using a lighter spare ball?
« on: July 03, 2014, 01:59:50 PM »
I just wanted to see what is your thoughts on this, throwing a pound lighter on spare balls.  I know several bowlers in the past that threw heavier spare balls, but not lighter ones. Thanks

I have a 16lb strike and a 15lb spare.  I notice no difference in spares.  I did not do this on purpose as  i wanted to try 15 lbs again for my strike ball ( super light oil ball) and when it didnt work out i threw it in my bag as a spare ball/ light oil ball

nothing wrong with using lighter, you dont need a 16 pound ball to make single pins spares, lets you save more energy for your first shot.
