16 lbs to 15lbs?
« on: October 12, 2006, 05:19:26 AM »
Hey guys, I am currently throwing 16lb equipment. I am a pretty big guy (6'3 270) however I am wondering if i should move down to 15lbs because when I bowl, I feel like I cannot stay behind the ball as much as I would like, and then after bowling my wrist is a little sore. I plan on getting an Action Max soon, should I get it in 15lb or will it be too difficult to drop down while still throwing 16lb? Will the 15lb ball help my accuracy at all?

I know I dropped to a 15lb ball because of a wrist injury that kept creeping up on me. And in doing so, My average went up and I hit my mark more then with a 16lb ball.

BOWLING IS FUN NO MATTER WHAT YOU SCORE. BUT A 300 IS ALWAYS NICE.

STRIKE ZONE & PYRO. STAND 15 AND THROW 10 OUT TO 5 AND SMASH THE POCKET. AT LEAST THAT IS THE PLAN OF THE NIGHT...

would moving up from 14lbs to 15lbs do any damage to my game? staying behind the ball wise, balance?

plus i have only heard positive responses from people who have moved down from 16lbs to 15lbs.

good luck anyway bud
