If you want a lot of weight in a small space, use TUNGSTEN. They make Tungsten fish weights, shot for reloading, etc. EDIT: Tungsten is roughly 2.5X denser (heavier) than steel. So replacing the same amount of steel with tungsten. the ball would've weighed about 26 lbs. :-)

Packy back in the 80`s here in St. Louis, Mo. The ABC had their HOF. On display they had a Home made bowling ball from the 1920`s that was used in Chicago that was chiseled out of a solid piece of granite. it weighed in at 38 lbs. with only a 2 hole grip . thumb and one finger.. Someone asked why any bowling alley owner would let someone use a ball like that? If you can bowl with a 38 lb ball using only your thumb and one finger... Who`s going to stop you.. Enjoyed the video.

Going back to the late '60's, an acquaintance loaded an AMF magic circle so it had one pound of top weight. Planning to turn adult shortly, he used it in his last city tournament at a center with overlane ball returns. Unfortunately, sometime after the tournament started, his ball did not make it up the ramp and started rolling back down with a very noticeable wobble. He was suspended from juniors and not allowed to join the ABC for another year. This was featured in the Suspension Report section of Bowling Magazine at the time.

[@DeedsResearcher]

The person who cheats deserves to get kicked out! There is no room for dishonesty in any sports.

[@gavigansadventuresandinsig6479]

I did something similar when I ran a pro shop in the early 90s. I drilled a big deep hole in two different balls. We loaded bb's and fishing weights in both. We gave them each a name - the "Catfish/R" (there was a Piranha/C and a Nitro/R out at the time, so we played on those names. Then, the other one actually rattled as I think I used part of a thumb slug to make a hollow chamber. That one was called the "Rhino Pro BB." We had fun with them for sure.

[@Poundcakebowler]

I love the video man! It’s actually crazy because you played at the lanes that are 2 minutes from where I live and it blew my mind! But I’m happy to see more Wichita two handed bowlers!!

[@montanamade8712]

An interesting experiment would be to hollow out the center of a regulation ball (not sure how without cutting it in half), creating a slide area with a moving weight front/back, side/side to see if you could influence the ball to do exactly what you want. I imagine it going very well, or REALLY bad- no middle ground on this one. The idea is from looking at different cores from the factories, and different shapes of them. The weights could/should move too much or you create “wobble”, which you don’t want. But arranging it on a front load off the side of the two finger holes may induce the ball to spin better and curve harder. Anyway, random thought…

[@hitdrumhard]

I have always wondered if getting a weight to transition from the outer edge to the middle, and making the ball RG number decrease by a crazy amount would create stupid amounts of hook.

[@TheHouseBowling]

That would be kinda wild!! Maybe like putting some sort of liquid in it!

[@louiscsanko3673]

Packy, I tried this back in the 80's with an old Black U,,dot. I used fishing [ sinkers] and the ball crushed the pins. Very noticeable wobble. I didn't have a pro shop's help. I put the lead in a weight hole and sealed it up with some liquid urethane. Not very easy to control.

[@Bassmaster1256]

I got a Sure-D Pro ball up to 17lbs 10oz back in the 70's and anything high in the pocket was toast. I had to get it light or just barely flush. It was all drive.

[@TheHouseBowling]

Doesnt exactly slow down through the pins lol

[@michaelhurst506]

Using lead shot would have worked much more easily rather than steel BB's. Oh, well. Interesting video.

[@bobbybooey4948]

many years ago I was bowling a big money league. Long story short we caught this guy putting fishing weights & sinkers in the ball. They took it into the pro shop and it weighed just short of 18lbs. He got thrown out the league and suspended from ABC. Ahhhh good times

[@UtahKent]

Cabela's and a Honda Accord. Whole new level of respect. Use lead (or gold). But go to a tire store and ask them about their old tire weights. Or at Cabela's get some cast lead pistol bullets or lead shot. Steel isn't much. Use lead... or gold...😅😂😅

Should have used mercury in a double balloon in the plug. We did this 30 years ago and if you spun the ball it would just go straight.

It was the only ball to hook.

Did you add extra epoxy to get the top of the holes round again? When you showed the flare lines they looked a bit flat. I ask this because I have a cracked ball (3mm wide and almost around the entire ball) and after seeing this, I might epoxy the crack and try to use it again (I don't have easy access to new balls and they are very expensive).

resin wont fix a crack around the whole ball coz the cover will likely be seperated from the core underneath mate.

Technically, not a bowling ball, but I remember back when I was a kid in the 60's they were demolishing an old bowling alley to put up a new one. So before demolishing it, one of the crew got an iron ball about the size of a bowling ball but about 40 or 50 pounds. They had to roll it granny-style down the lane but they were able to do so, and I think one or two strikes were made. There were no mechanical pinsetters and the ball was supposed to be returned on old-style ball return where the ball rode a rail on top of the land divider, but couldn't make it because it was so heavy. I was only 8 or 9 so I don't remember much but do remember the iron ball.

[@pjzanotto7454]

It’s interesting to think about what velocity your getting on the ball… Velocity = Mass x acceleration. At some point even if the ball is indeed heavier the speed (plus accuracy) you can no longer achieve would cancel out the effect of the heavier ball. At one point I see the speed is at 14.5 mph which is surely well below your average speed you go for. Not even to mention getting revs on the ball is harder to achieve.

[@JoshCosta]

Velocity doesn’t matter, it’s hitting power. The pins weigh a certain amount and the ball deflects some amount. Higher the weight less deflection. I’d imagine though you’d get more solid 9 pins as a righty. Haven’t watched yet, but
