There is nothing better than a fun late-night bowling session with your friends\u2014even if it gets a little too competitive! It is essential to choose the right bowling ball weight to get an impressive strike as it majorly affects the throw. So which bowling ball weight is best for you?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A common rule of thumb is that the ball’s weight should be 10 percent of your total body weight, but this also depends on your age, gender, and physical condition. It is essential that you choose the ball weight you feel most comfortable with. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you weigh around 180 pounds, you obviously won’t be using an 8-pound bowling ball. On the flip side, don’t go for the heaviest ball available just to seem more macho. Try out different weights and sizes to see which one fits best and doesn’t tire out your arm quickly or strain your muscles.<\/p>\n\n\n
