If you are going bowling several times a month, you should seriously think about getting your pyramid antidote ball. This has many advantages. First, the holes are drilled to fit your hand perfectly, giving you a much higher level of ball control. A good grip generally allows the player to control a ball that weighs 2 pounds more than a local ball, and heavier balls are better for hitting.

When a player decides to buy his own ball, he is surprised to learn that there are so many options. There are main types of bowling balls. Which is better? In fact, what works best for you depends on your bowling style, and most professionals use at least two different types: one for a strike and one for a backup. Let's take a look at four types of bowling balls.

Plastic Bowling Balls

These are the most common and cheapest bowling balls. They are also the most durable. For these reasons, most bowls are offered as a home ball. The reason they are durable is that their hard plastic casing is highly resistant to abrasion. This allows them to avoid rolling too far off the bowling line. These balls are great for straight shots, but not great for hook shots. Many professionals use these balls to get spare parts.

Urethane Bowling Balls

Urethane balloons were developed in the 1970s. They have a softer shell that can hold the road better than plastic balls. When turned a bit, these balls have the ability to hit and shoot. Most players who are learning to throw hook balls choose uranium balls.

Reactive Resin Balls

These are preferred by experienced bowlers. They are mainly uranium balls with resin particles added to their shells. This has a bi-directional effect: it makes the ball slide more towards the oily part of the court and more towards the dry part of the court. Since bowling alleys tend to be less greasy near the pin, this combination allows the bowler to throw a hooked ball that can explode on the tail of the trajectory.

Particle Bowling Ball

Another development in the 1990s was the addition of microscopic glass particles to resin beads. This allowed them to hold a strong rear hook, while at the same time giving them more control from the front. They are the most expensive balls and the most preferred by modern professionals.
