Question: What type of bowling ball should a straight bowler use?
A: Straight bowlers should use plastic or polyester coverstock balls with symmetrical cores. These low friction balls minimize hook and keep the path straight. Popular choices include the Brunswick TZone series (various colors), Columbia 300 White Dot, Storm Clear, Storm Ice, and Motiv Aspire series. Conventional grips are commonly used for comfort and control.
