Positive dialogue and cooperation characterized the initial meeting of the USBC Bowling Ball Specifications Task Force Oct 1. USBC representatives and technical volunteers from 13 bowling ball manufacturers held positive discussions about several different bowling ball performance issues and how those can impact the credibility and integrity of the sport. The discussion included:
o Bowling ball compliance agreements
o Review of new and existing bowling ball specifications
o Possible modification or elimination of existing bowling ball specifications
o Credibility issues in bowling
o Ball motion and dynamic ball performance
o Possible recommendation of additional bowling ball specifications
o Discussion and investigation into the possible adoption of dynamic bowling ball performance measures
o Future meetings
Representative from bowling ball manufacturers described the meeting as constructive. Steve Kloempken, Storm Technical Director, Mo Pinel, President MoRich Enterprises, Inc and representatives from Brunswick, Circle Athletics, Columbia Industries Inc, Dyno-Thane, Ebonite International, Hammer, Lane #1, Lane Masters, Roto Grip, Track Inc and Visionary Bowling Products have agreed to sit on the task force.
This should be a pat on the back to all involved for ensuring that all the players are on the same page and looking out for the bowling community.
