What is best to remove oil from inside Bowling ball?
Many pro shops have a special oven that is safe for the bowling ball, but will draw out oil that has been absorbed.
Can you put a tennis ball in an oven?
It depends on the type of ball. Some can be put in the oven on lowest (120degrees) setting. To do this you must put a towel on bottom of the pan you are using, put it in for 15 to 20 min, take it out and put in hot soapy water, dry off and place back in the oven, repeat until no oil comes out of your ball. This can take several hours. Your best bet is to go to the bowling alley, they have a machine that extracts the oil from your ball. I would say if your ball is older than 2years and you bowl frequently then it is time to get a new ball.....ignore everything i said so far..never ever put your bowling ball in the oven it will ruin the coverstock of your bowling ball which helps make it hook. And if you do put in the oven ur risking the core of your bowling ball in which if it breaks your ball is pretty much screwed might as well say its a house ball. If your bowling ball is getting old I mean if you bowled at least 150 games with it I would get it resurfaced. Ya that's they put your ball in a resufacing machine which removes all the oil...that should definitely put some life back into your bowling ball. This only works on reactive resin ball or particle not on spare balls.
What is a bleeder bowling ball?
It is a ball that was made by columbia. The ball would absorb the oil from "wet" lanes so that it could "bleed" the extra oil when bowling on a "dry" lane.
How does friction apply to bowling?

The other 15 ft, the backend or dry is what the ball "hooks" or Reacts off of. the coverstock of the ball expounds the oil on the ball and the fricition between the ball and lane cause the ball to "hook"

Why does a heavier bowling ball roll faster than a lighter bowling ball?

Because you sweat you idiot!
Why do bowling lanes have to be smooth?
so the ball will roll easier and the ball will hook harder when the oil ends making for a better hit. without oil you would have to bowl straight. hooking on a dry lane will but you in the gutter hard
What is a bowling adjustment?
Commonly, a bowling adjustment, is referring to either where a bowler is standing or where a bowling is aiming when throwing the ball. This is done in order to better have the ball hit the "pocket" or for picking up spares. When getting into more advanced bowling techniques, you will find that you will be making adjustments though out each game as the oil on the lane breaks down and your shot changes.
What is a track in bowling?
A track in bowling is referring to the balls trajectory down the lane. Based on where a bowler aims, the lanes oils conditions, the bowling ball use, their rotation and other factors, the trajectory can be vastly different from game to game. A track can also refer to the oil track on a ball. Some bowlers use this track to determine how the ball is rolling and what part of the ball is actually in contact with the lane.
