I am upgrading my current Bowling ball, a beginner 14lb ball made of reactive resin and drilled for a light hook, to a high performance ball that will have a more hooking power (Roto-Grip Cell Pearl). I throw between 14 and 15mph. I am comfortable with the 14lb but was thinking moving to a 15lb ball to get more punch but am afraid the transition will affect my game negatively. I am an averaged size person (~155 lbs) who stays in shape. I average ~160 with my current ball. Your opinions please.
I just got a new ball too i moved up a pound. no matter what when you get a new ball your average will drop. How fast, depends on how fast you can adjust to the new changes. Once you figure out what your new ball is doing, then your average will greatly increase. The new ball will give a lot more pin action but with it being heavier your ball speed will decrease. If i were you and you can throw a 14lb ball 14 to 15mph i would move up to the next size/level. hope that helps
