Beauty and value is in the eye of the beholder, so this is a near impossible question to answer. There are many bowling ball companies all who make quality products.

Depending on your knowledge of bowling balls (and their construction) your question becomes even more difficult. You need to make the decision for yourself what is the best brand for you. Suggest you visit an IPBSIA Certified Pro Shop for more detailed information about bowlign balls. You could start with getting more information from a web site that provides bowling ball reviews.

Sorry if the response sounds ambiguous but this is the reality of the situation.

i think which ever one makes you feel powerful and controlable

I perfer Ebonite....I like the variations of coverstocks.

I like the columbia 300 balls. I got a Freeze and it raised my average up twenty pins...... I hook my ball so it matters if you hook or not.

I like the strom virutal energy and the invason.

whichever ball makes u feel the best. thats wat works for me.

The ball that is in my picture I have and its brand is storm and I bowled a 280 with this ball so I perfered storm.But it is your choice not mine but when you need a new ball at your local bowling center they have a book with all of the gear so ask your coach what kind a ball you need because he is a coach and he does the best for your bowling game I hope this information helps you pick a new ball
good luck!

Brunswick or columbia 300

What ever makes you comfortable and one that you can throw naturally. I have a Groove.

For me it usually is roto-grip or storm. But it's like a barber, everyone has their own choice.

In my opinion, I like Colombia 300 and Storm. My favorite ball that Colombia 300 make in my opion is the Freeze. I like the Freeze because it is mid-priced and still is a pretty high preformance ball. I also like Storm. They have many variations of beginner balls to very high-preformance. My favorite ball that Storm makes is the one they just came out with, Ice. I am going to tell you that the Ice is a plastic ball. This means this will only go straight unless you make it hook but i dont recommend making it hook when you can but a ball for the same price that does hook. I am only 12 years old and I currently just recieved these balls for Christmas and I have increased my average but about 15-20 pins in about 3-4 months. I definetly recommend Storm and Colombia 300.

I would say Storm or Brunswick, because they have a reputation for making very good and succesfil bowling balls like the Storm Virtual Energy and Gravity, and the Brunswick Evil Seige and Twisted Fury series.

Ball loyalty is important to me. EBONITE!

Brunswick,Storm,and Colombia 300.But Brunswick is my favorite. Good Luck!!!!!!!
