Bowling Ball weight

[hiroller789]

My current equipment weighs almost 15 pounds. The past couple of years I have developed a sore elbow after bowling, but it goes away after a few days of rest. Nothing is wrong with my arm, so I am guessing that I am not as strong as I used to be (though I am heavier). I am 47 yrs old now. Would I benefit from dropping my next ball down in weight? I average 205.

you can try going down in weight to a 14lb ball and see how that works, definately will help relieve some of the pain.

i'd also have your span/grip checked to see if any adjustments are needed which to me sounds like they are needed. talk with your local proshop and they should be able to help you.
