i have about 12 at the moment, but i'm thinking of going into the collecting phase. A little off topic, but does anyone have any good plans for a ball rack? I wanna build one for my room to keep some of my balls at home

I have 5 including a spare ball..... but I would have more if I wasn't 18 and broke.

I think we all know a guy like that!

Didn't he post a video in the lane 1 contest showing him and his might 50 rev's pointing at the pocket with his new AO??

I have had as many as 40 at one time. Right now, I am at 20. Over the years, I have had over 300 total.

28 in counting n i am not complaining

cos each ball has got a specific condition that they will perform well in and its the challenge of being able to match up the ball according to the oiling that matters most

Went counting the other day. Balls drilled with my span was 78. Used balls to be fixed and drilled to my span 10. Other used balls 100. NIB balls all weights 250. Bowling center where my Pro Shop was located closed down.

Not to insult anyone but who has anything for sale in 14lbs,drilled right handed and due to a tight budget I have only $50.00 to spend on myself.If you have anything let me know.This is my gift to myself and a new ball is just way out of my reach right now especially when a lot of the jobs in my area are really slowing down or closing up.All offers will be looked at and responded to in a timely fashion.Thank you.

When the wife says "now what's different about that one" and you've got no comeback! I currently have 6. Not actively looking, but if enough relatives get me what I asked for for Christmas (gift certificates at the pro shop), number 7 is just around the corner and I didn't have to pay for this one!! Maybe I'll buy it when my wife and kids are in Disney World for 10 days w/out me in Jan-Feb. (The choice to not go is MINE - I mean how many times can you ride the Peter Pan ride!!) She'll kill me if she reads this!!

I have around a 14 ball limit at my apartment but most of the time I hide them in the proshop or at my parents but over all try to do is stay below 25.

bowling keeps me entertained - constantly. People with low averages need more new balls than than those with high averages because each new ball is like a bit of magic. I need all the magic I can get - it is true that practicing with my straight ball 20 to 30 games per week put some magic in my game....still...am about to look at ebay for a super ball at a super price. Perhaps a rubber ball for spares........

My collection is limited by space - not need. This is not how I earn a single cent. This is my fun...perhaps not forever....

If I didn't bowl I would golf. How many clubs can be your bag?
