What to know before buying a bowling ball?

To choose the right bowling ball you need to consider several factors such as the ball’s weight, coverstock, core, and getting it drilled properly. These factors all relate to each other in some way and have an impact on the bowling performance

On average, a high-quality bowling ball can cost anywhere from $100 to $300 or more. A good entry-level bowling ball can cost around $100 to $150, these balls are usually made of plastic coverstock and lower hook potential, making them suitable for beginner bowlers. Mid-range bowling balls can cost around $150 to $200

Bowling balls are made of four main different types of Coverstocks-Plastic, Urethane, Reactive Resin, and Particle (Proactive). The big difference between these coverstock materials is how they perform and react on the lane surface.

What coverstock is best for more hook?
In general, reactive resin balls are known for stronger hook potential due to their traction response. Within reactive resin, surface finish (polished vs. matte) also affects when and how the ball reads the lane.
New balls typically offer fresh performance with less wear on the surface. Used balls may still work great, but surface condition, polish level, and past drilling can change how they react on the lane.
Yes—proper drilling matters. The layout affects reaction, comfort, and consistency. A professional can also ensure the fit is correct and that your ball matches your throw style.
