| Bowlers Journal International The Bowlers Journal International ball testing of all the new releases definitely affords us an advantage in understanding ALL the new balls much better than simply relying on the manufacturers information or testing just a few as is common with most pro shops. We test on both wood and synthetic on a medium and heavy volume to better comprehend the personality of a given ball. All balls have strengths and weaknesses. One of my jobs is to determine these attributes as accurately as possible. It is a constant learning process and each month our understanding improves. Response time is a very important element of understanding ball motion. Almost all balls go reasonably straight in oil. They do differ in how quickly and aggressively they respond to friction (the breakpoint). This quickness or aggressiveness is essential in creating the proper entry angle for a given lane condition. There are lane conditions less reaction is better in matching up and holding pocket. Other times more response and angularity is needed to create improved pin carry. Stop in and let Joey or Dennis help you better understand these variances. Click on the bowling ball to read Joey's latest reviews in the Bowlers Journal International magazine.
