Bowling-Ball Pins Explained Not to be confused with the pins at the end of the lane, every bowling ball is marked with a colored dot, which represents the ball's pin. The pin is vital in determining how to drill your ball to get your desired reaction on the lanes.11 Aug 2018
Are lighter bowling balls better?
The heavier the ball the more hitting power and driving power, and the more pin action. Using a ball that's one pound lighter eases a significant amount of strain on a bowler's body over the course of a 30-week league session, a tournament or, in the case of the pro bowlers, a tour season.
Most pro bowlers use 16-pound balls, although more than you think use 15-pounders. Another method is to add one or two pounds to the weight of the house ball you normally use. A heavier ball drilled specifically to your hand will seem to weigh about the same as a house ball two pounds lighter.

What is the highest pounding bowling ball?
The maximum legal weight of a bowling ball is 16 pounds (or 7.27 kilograms). For that reason, a lot of bowlers use 16-pound bowling balls, whether they should or not. If a 17-pound ball was allowed, plenty of those who currently use 16-pounders would move up to 17. Some of that comes from a bowler's ego.7 May 2019
