Get more 10-12lbs balls with large size holes. The only bowling alley in Springfield has just two of these. I'm probably going to get my own ball in the next few days, I can't stand it.
Sure I can bowl with a 15-16 pounder, but I like to rifle the ball down the lane as hard and as fast as I can. If I do this with a 15 pounder, I lose all aim. I threw so many gutters, it was ridiculous.

Re: Bowling Balls at the Bowling Alley
Springfield only has one bowling alley? There's a bowling alley everywhere you turn here, despite there being plenty of better things to do.
I agree with this rant, though. When I bowl I throw a half assed hook (not proper form, just turn my wrist over as I release it) and the heavier balls always hook into the gutter, not to mention damn near breaking my wrist. So I spend a half hour trying to find the one 12 lb ball in the entire place that also has finger holes big enough for my hands. But since I only bowl maybe once or twice a year I'm not going to buy a ball.
