I read this on a US forum post...
" It is my opinion that if a ball manufacturer finds a way to improve a bowlers scoring potential then it has done what it is suppesed to do by offering a better product. It is also my opinion that bowlers are supposed to try to find ways to use any of the many tools at their disposal to maximize scoring potential. It is also my opinion that lane maintenance procedures should be used to bring balance to the above variables. Instead what has happened for many years now is that lane maintenance procedures have been used to increase scoring to the point that the game has become unbalance. Soft conditions dramatically increase scoring only for those with the knowledge and abilities to exploit the patterns.Those without the knowledge or ability might as well be bowling on a sport pattern for all the good it does them. All they know is that they are unable to compete but they do not understand why this is so. High scoring conditions make it impossible for novice players to be able to compete with the elite players because of a lack of balance in the game. I submit that it should be the resposibility of the governing body of the sport of bowling to insure that balance, or integrity is restored to the game. Without balance the game will die. Perhaps when enough people stop buying this defective product it will occur to someone that it can be improved upon."
I am very interested in you thoughts on this issue!
