Bowling Ball - Five-pin Bowling Balls

Five-pin Bowling Balls

Five-pin bowling balls have no finger holes and are between 4.75 to 5 inches (12.1 to 13 centimetres) in diameter. They weigh between 3.50 and 3.625 pounds (1.59 and 1.644 kilograms). The smaller size and lighter weight of the balls allows bowlers to hold the ball in the palm of their hand when bowling.

Famous quotes containing the word balls:

    look the spangles
    that sleep all the year in a dark box
    dreaming of being taken out and allowed to shine,
    the balls the chains red and gold the fluffy threads,

    put up your little arms
    and i’ll give them all to you to hold
    —E.E. (Edward Estlin)
