What are the Best Bowling Accessories You Must Have in Your Bag?
Bowling Accessories
When you get in to bowling more and want to take it to another level, there are several Bowling Accessories that you should consider carrying in your bag at all times to help you get through different situations:
🎳 Screwdriver, scissors, or other tools
🎳 Wrist braces or athletic tape, if appropriate
🎳 New Skin, in case you get a blister
A general bowling accessories bag is good to bring with you at all times. Because there are so many options, I recommended trying a bunch of things to see what works best for you. If you’re looking for guidance, feel free to reach out to a Pro Shop Operator. Especially as many centers are not open right now, we are happy to support in other ways. #mdmcoaching #protipfriday #iambowlersmart

Bowling Tape, Rosin Bags & Powder
🎳 Tape, rosin bag, or powder can help you get a more consistent feeling shot-to-shot or week-to-week when your hand changes size. I personally use tape in the thumb hole that is white textured to help the ball grab me. Some people don’t like tape but, if your hand swells, the only other option is powder. Powder is so slick that you have to grab the ball harder. Everybody has a preference and you have to find what works for you and stick with it.Â
Bowling Towels & See-Saws
🎳 Towels, See Saws and Shammies are a must have in your bag. By wiping oil off your ball after each shot you do a few things that are vital to success. You prevent the absorbtion of oil into your ball which helps it to keep reacting like new, longer. It also creates a fresh surface area for the ball to create friction with the lane.Â
Soles & Heels for interchangeable shoes
🎳 Interchangeable sole bowling shoes with Velcro on the bottom allow you to change the sole and heel of your shoes to help you slide more or less from house to house.Â
Sanding Pads & Abralon Pads
🎳 Sanding pads (like Abralon) because as you learn about the importance of surface, it’s good to have a couple of them in your bag to dull the bowling ball down to hook earlier before competition starts.
Soles & Heels for interchangeable shoes
🎳 Interchangeable sole bowling shoes with Velcro on the bottom allow you to change the sole and heel of your shoes to help you slide more or less from house to house. Check these out here on BowlersMart.com
