I am using a 13 pound radical inferno to learn how to hook, i also got a tornado. Are they good for me to learn or is it too advance for me to handle? especially the inferno.
im looking for a resonable pair of bowling shoes, becos im a left hander so choices has been pretty limited. Chevrons have nothing for me, and bukit batok CSC has a dexter one that cost around 80+. any one can recommend me where to get a resonable pair of shoes tt will fit a left hander? budget is pretty tight. heard tt those budget shoes are really bad. any comments? | |

a good guide for the weight of your bowling ball should be 10% of your body weight, which in your case, is close to 148lbs. so the ideal weight should be either 14 or 15lb. another way is to perhaps see your ball speed and backswing ba... if your ball speed is too fast, then perhaps your bowling ball is too light. same theory goes to your backswing. hehehe... dunno whether correct or not... pls correct me if i'm wrong.
i'm not familiar with brunswick balls, so unable to comment. but a tornado is an entry-level reactive ball, so should be fairly easy for you to handle.
bowling shoes... maybe you can consider a leyon one to start off with, or a pair of entry-level dexter.
