I bowl a dead straight ball. i put ALOT of power behind the ball naturally. I am realitivly new to bowling. I dont want to spend a ton of money finding the ball that is the best fit for the way that I bowl. So what would be the best ball for the way that I bowl?

    any ball will spin if you use a upper cut techinque when you release the ball. Don’t forget to let your arm follow through in full motion.

    If you are not putting any hook on the ball, the only thing that will matter is the weight of the ball. You will want to throw the heaviest ball you can to maximize the force with which your ball hits the pins. 16lbs is the max, if you are comfortable throwing a 16lb ball, then you should be. A plastic ball will be all that you need and this shouldn’t cost you more than $80. Anything more expensive will have a reactive coverstock which will just be a waste of money since you are not throwing a hook. The best ball for you will be a 16lb plastic ball.
