Question:


HOW DOES THE WIDOW SPARE COMPARE TO SPARE PLUS IF ANY

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


Hello. This is a spare ball that will bowl straight. Spare balls do not have any kind of hook on them.

Answer:


Both balls have the same out of box surface on them, but I believe the Widow Spare is a bit earlier and has a bit more hook potential over the Track Spare+. However, it is very minimal in difference, maybe only a one board difference.

Question:


Is it better to have this drilled at the pro shop once I receive it or just basic drilling offered on the website?

Have an answer to this question?

Answer:


If this is your first time purchasing a bowling ball online, it would be best to take it to a driller to have your hand measured so he can drill it exactly to your hand.
