Question: How do I choose bowling balls for different lane conditions?
A: Match the ball to the oil volume and pattern. Use strong/smooth balls on heavy oil for controlled traction. Choose medium/smooth as your benchmark on typical house shots. On medium oil transitions use medium/sharp balls. For dry or burnt lanes use weak/sharp balls for length and angle. Always test your arsenal and adjust based on how the lanes break down during play.
