Understanding Bowling Ball Cores and Different Types of Core Technologies 

Being a new bowler, it would be nice if you explained the physics behind the different cores.

Having seen most of these in person made this even more satisfying, being at the education center was one of the coolest experiences, can't wait to go back

That poor Optyx! I should check mine to see if it has cracked, as I haven't used it in about 10 years. I have another one NIB that still looks good as well.

What was the 5 piece core ball called?

Great video, very informative.

feel like i keep going back and forth with myself on this question but what makes a ball stronger. What core numbers am I looking for when I am looking for a stronger ball and number for a weaker ball?

Good Ole HyRoad. Probably one of the most used balls in history.

Hey there I actually shoot with a 12 pound ball. I've had shoulder surgery, back surgery and bicep surgery. On top of all that, I only bowl with 2 fingers in the ball " i don'tuse finger tips in my ball". You stated the lower the RG hooks better. The third ball that you spoke of with the center weight with a top weight. Would that be the best ball for me to have, to have a better curve. Right now I shoot with a Cuda solid solid.

What's the ball with the 5 piece core

Is it possible to have a ball with a thick shell (no filler material) with a low RG? I'd say all the balls with thicker shells have higher RGs

Ron is such a Boss. Simple and excellent explanations. Ty

This is one of the Best explanations ever... love how you make confusing things sound so much simpler!!

this explains a lot and make it easy to understand. I love the behind the lane when it comes to bowling.

I haven't been bowling in quite awhile, I use to love it. Just been looking up informational videos and this is probably the best "Core" video iv seen

I would love to see a video that goes much more in depth with the science and reasoning behind each type of core

Awesome video thank you!

Great video. I just watched a video on how bowling balls are manufactured in a small China factory. It was interesting on the number of cores in a ball. I never knew they made them like that. Now I understand that makes a difference on how the balls perform. I don't understand the physics, but assume it has depends on mass, weight, location of the holes and speed. Thanks for the great presentation on the different balls you displayed and discussed.

Interesting video thanks much

One of the best videos.

Brilliant!!!
