The point I am trying to make is this: THS and Ball Tech has made it easier to achieve a 200 Average.
Bowlers that compete today, have stockpiles of bowling equipment. Why? It helps them with their game. If they are so much more talented athletes now, they should be able to go to any tournament with one ball and win, Instead of:
If the lanes are light oil - Use ball 1
If the lanes are light/medium oil - Use ball 2
If the lanes are medium oil - Use ball 3.
If the lanes are medium/heavy oil - Use ball 4
If the lanes are heavy oil - They use ball 5.
If there is carry down - They use ball 6.
If the lanes are dry - They use ball 7.

I might be exaggerating this a little bit...or again...I might not be.
