Thanks for a really informative video. As a kid, I grew up in a bowling alley. For some its the game of pool. For others golf. To me, nothing could ever compare to the total environment of the sport of bowling. I never mastered the technique to become a really good bowler but, I was good enough to really enjoy league play with others. Good to know that there is a lot of physics and math involved in the design of these wonderful balls.

thanks for the upload!

I’ve yet to see how they keep the core exactly in the center of the final mold, so that an even amount of the urethane all around... ie.. so the core is not 1/2” from the outside edge, for example... 🤔

They don't actually show it in this video, but I believe there are three pins that are stuck in the core. When they put the core into the mold, the pins hold the core in suspension, so when the outer material is poured, the core stays in the center.

It's held on with metal dowel inside the bottom mold I made hammer bowling balls for 20 yrs

I quit bowling 30 years ago as a teenager. I was a league bowler with a very respectable 175 average. I recently rekindled my interest in bowling. A trip to the local bowling alley and pro shop showed me just how much has changed. It also explained why the averages were so high. People with horrific approach fundamentals were routinely bowling 200+ games. I'm not sure I like this automatic strike engineering. There's no telling what they have done to the lanes to promote high scores.

oh there is telling, THS (the house shot) is set up as a wall now everywhere you go, miss outside the ball hits dry and automatically comes back, pull it inside the ball hits oil and sits still until it gets to the pocket...it's pretty difficult if you have a decent ball and any kind of idea at all about where to throw the ball to not throw around 200 nowadays.

@FB_Wanderer

I was a bowler for roughly 2 years, and had around a 170ish average for the most part. Youth Saturday morning league, and I also bowled for our high school team as well. The THS and lanes vary from house to house, and sometimes drastically. Some places still have the classic wood lanes, which are my person favorite, but as dipshits loft the balls over the years, it bangs up the lanes pretty bad and that becomes a factor. Some places have full synthetic lanes which are okay, seem to leave a very heavy oil pattern on top.. but it is cheaper and easier to replace a badly damaged lane. Then there are places that have a synthetic front half and a wood back half, which act like a nice middle ground. Different balls are designed for different lane conditions as well. And however that I do agree that they all are engineered to promote high scores, the skill set used is still fundamentally the same for anyone really serious about the game.. But a lot of people rely more on their bowling ball than their skills. I personally have small timing issues and release issues but because I am just getting back into it myself after a 4 year absence.

@@FB_Wanderer i don't think its ppl rely on their bowling balls more then the skills cause you need good skills to get the ball to hit the pocket consistently, i mean you dont just roll the ball down anywhere on the lane and expect the ball to strike, the lane conditions can alter that but also where you look on the lane and place the ball based on the boards ur looking at, or aim at certain arrows can definitely help. getting strikes every time is still hard to get, yea you can bowl a few shots and they go good but then in the same spot it changes and hooks differently, you have to change where you throw it after every few shots, and you gotta know what to do if the ball is doing too much or too little and i need to change balls, but thats just my opinion, ive been bowling for 19 years and i dont like it when ppl try to hook house balls when their no tech behind it, yea they they do it for shits and giggs but still. anyway let the kids do whatever.

A question: How heavy are the cores? There must be a range of weights for them.

@yuppiehi

3 жыл бұрын

I don't believe there is a range of weights on the cores. The overall weight the ball is determined by the outer core, and the weight is determined by the density of the outer core. If you want a 10lb ball, you add more air to the outer core. If you want a 16lb ball, then you have less air. And that's how the overall size of the ball remains the same regardless of weight.

Usually a 10-13 pound ball has an entirely different core than a 14-16 pound ball of the same model. So if you think that 13 pound ball you just had drilled up has that DeathMaster X4000 Supermolecular Positronic Core in it, it most likely does not.

So they are saying that Symmetrical Balls Don’t hook?

@yuppiehi

6 жыл бұрын

Purely on the basis that the core is symmetrical, yes a symmetrical core alone will not help the bowling ball create a hook. We're talking about house bowling balls when we speak of symmetrical cores. And house balls are symmetrical because it needs to be usable by anyone - left, right, two-handed, between the legs, etc. You can however make any rounded object hook, regardless of what's on the inside. It just take a lot more effort in terms of getting more lift out of the fingers and wrist, and so on for the ball to produce a hooking like pattern. But even so, this is not technically a "hook." All you're really doing there is spinning the ball, like you would with a baseball or a golf ball. The problem with spinning is that, when the ball hits the pins, the ball will deflect more severely since there is no asymmetrical motion to force the ball to stay on the hooking path. So even if a spinning ball hits the 1-3 pocket, a spinning ball will probably end up deflecting to the right and maybe even hit the 10-pin on its way into the pit. So the key here is that asymmetrical cores will not only force the ball to hook, but also keep hooking and sticking to this line until it finds its sweet spot, which then will cause the ball to once again roll straight. But to attempt at doing the same with a symmetrical core bowling ball - you're basically torturing yourself.

everybody is saying he's bowling 9 pin no tap, which means that if he gets 9 it counts as a strike. Looking at the scoreboard at the end, you can see that 6 of his 8 strikes were no tap strikes, which means that even if he converted all of them to spares (which is not likely) he would've bowled a 163. This means that in all likelihood, his real score would've been about 130-150 because I'm sure he would not have picked up all of the spares just based on his skill level.

i dont know why these idiots all say "thumb comes out first" its nonsense. theres no other way a your fingers can come out. if you wanna hook, u gotta cup the ball atleast a little bit. thats all there is to it.

@jannexorz

9 жыл бұрын

It's not nonsense. A lot of newcomers, even though they are cupping the wrist but they're rotating the wrist so much that the ball comes out about at the same time from thumb and fingers, resulting in a inaccurate spin and possibly injuries rather than good rotation. It's good to concentrate on having your thumb go out first soon enough to get the hand in a good position behind the ball to prevent injuries and be more accurate. After that they might try cupping the wrist more to get more rotation.

@yuppiehi

9 жыл бұрын

Thumbs before fingers is actually still true today with the modern swing. Your hand is supposed to be behind the ball, with the wrist somewhat bent. When the thumb releases, both fingers should still be in the ball. This creates lift and rotation. You're not supposed to rotate the ball with the thumb still in the ball - this can even cause injury to the thumb. Also, the thumb should never be pointing down on the follow through, which would be the result of keeping the thumb in the ball too long.
