Does the mass of your bowling ball make any difference in your bowling?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Yes. The weight of a ball is one of the most important factors to consider when buying/using a ball. If your ball is too heavy you won't have the speed you need to get the ball to the other end with enough momentum left over to crash through the pins, and also your swing is more likely to go all over the place.

Similarly, if your ball is too light, you will have too much speed and your ball will just bounce off the pins (especially if it's plastic) and not hit the full set of pins. Also, when your ball is too light you tend to swig your arm faster and become more reckless in terms of accuracy.

The most played sport in the US is basketball, without a doubt. Basketball is the most played sport, though. Kids play basketball as the main sport in elementary school and in middle school, as well as high school. In certain areas of the country, some sports might be played more than others. For the entire United States basketball remains number one as the most played sports.

I think that it just depends where you are. In Colorado, I can almost guarantee that snow skiing is more popular than water skiing. If you are on the coasts or have a large mass of water in your state, and no mountains, then water skiing will be more popular than snow skiing.

How many rows of dots are on the approach?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are 2 row's of dots on a bowling lane approach.

One is at the back of the approach about a foot up from the back edge and the other is about 3 feet toward the foul line.

The center dot is the center of the lane.

They are there to help you remember where you stand when you start your approach.

Some lanes have 5 dots per row and some have 7 dots.

Most Popular Sports in the USHere are opinions and answers from contributors on WikiAnswers:
  • Gridiron (American Football) is easily the most popular sport in the US.
  • Attendance for college football is over 30 million fans per year, TV ratings for college and professional football, especially the Super Bowl, dwarf even the best baseball ratings (did anyone watch this year's World Series?), and high school football is nearly a religion in many states (Mississippi, Alabama,Louisiana, Florida, Ohio, Texas et al).
  • The TV ratings for the 2006 Ohio State vs. Michigan game had a 13.4 rating. That means that nearly 15 million households and almost 22 million viewers watched that one game. The attendance at the game was over 105,000. Throw in Alabama-Auburn, Rutgers-Cincinnati, and the rest of the games on "Rivalry Saturday" and the number of viewers would be greater than any of the above mentioned sports marquis games. The highest rated World Series game garnered only a 10.4 rating. NASCAR's Atlanta 500 race pulled in a meager 4.8 rating.
  • For the week of 10/23-29/06, 63.2 million people watched regular season Gridiron (american football) while 47.9 million watched the Championship (World Series) of baseball. Gridiron is King in the US.
  • Baseball, basketball, football (soccer) and any other sport that you want to name are nowhere nearly as popular as Gridiron (american football) in the US.
  • Soccer
  • The most popular sport in the United States is Baseball because it is America's "Past Time Sport". Baseball has been played for over 100 years.
  • NASCAR

Basketball and Gridiron (american football) have the most participants.

Gridiron both NFL and college has the highest attendances, but has very low participation levels.
