How to Choose the Best 900 Global Bowling Ball
900 Global manufactures performance bowling balls in San Antonio, Texas, for every level of bowler, from amateur to professional bowlers. To make the best choice, consider your skill level, the ball materials and the ball core.
Coverstock Materials
There are several things that will affect the performance of a ball’s coverstock (surface texture, hardness and oil absorption), and there are three primary materials used for coverstock, each with its own distinct characteristics: polyester, urethane, and reactive.
Polyester (or Plastic)
- Commonly used for beginner balls.
- Extremely durable.
- Less porous as other materials.
- Smooth surface results in low friction between ball and lane.
- Low hook potential.
Urethane
- Used for beginner to intermediate balls.
- Lots of friction between ball and lane.
- High hook potential.
- Easier to angle ball.
- Not as popular with experienced or professional bowlers.
Reactive Resin
- Used for advanced and professional-grade bowling balls.
- Most friction between ball and lane.
- Hooks extremely well.
- More effectively carries pins.
- Three types: reactive solid, reactive pearl, reactive hybrid.
- Most expensive option.
Reactive resin is nearly identical to the polyurethane material used to make urethane coverstock, but the reactive ball is enhanced with mica to give it better friction than a urethane ball.
The Core
Bowling balls have an outer shell, called the coverstock, and a large, heavy weight in a specific shape that distributes weight differently throughout the ball. The core determines how the ball builds momentum when it leaves your hands and moves down the lane towards the pins.
Two-piece balls typically have a single symmetrical bulb-shaped core, while others feature two or more outer cores and filler material. Three-piece balls typically have a “pancake” core along with a filler material. Pancake weights provide a reliable and steady momentum on standard lane conditions and are well-suited to recreational bowlers. Two-piece balls deliver a higher level of performance.
The 900 Global Spare Bowling Ball has a durable polyester coverstock and is designed to go straight and get those pesky corner pins. Entry-level bowlers who are learning to throw a ball that hooks will appreciate the After Dark balls. High-performance balls include Flux, Space Time Continuum and Volt, which feature the latest coverstock and core innovations from the 900 Global R&D team.
