Question: What core and coverstock should a new bowler look for?

A: New and returning bowlers should look for symmetrical cores paired with solid or hybrid coverstocks for smooth, controllable motion. Avoid high performance asymmetrical cores until you have consistent form. Entry-level reactive coverstocks provide a good balance of hook without being too difficult to control on house shots.
