    My bowling ball was just delivered from bowlingball.com. All in all, cost me about $50 and they drilled it out to their biggest standard size-- 2xl. With my ongoing shoulder issues I have been some pain when I bowl due to the fact that only the heaviest balls the alley's carry are drilled out in the larger sizes. I went with an 11 pounder hoping it would be about right. we will see.

    Man........im old.
    I used to bowl. I owned shoes. I hung with dudes that had multiple 300s. I held a solid 230 avg.

    Internet order custom drilled balls?

    Mind =blown

    I hope it breaks the way you want it to adam.

    And the cat rocks.

    I just made a goodwill trip last week, WWW's bowling ball was in there. He said the new return machines will not feed it up. Oh, and make sure to wear your ballroom pants while bowling.
