What are bowling balls made out of?

Bowling balls are made out of a variety of materials, and our bowling balls for sale reflect the most innovative designs to enhance your game. There are two main components to a bowling ball: the core and the coverstock. 

Cores can be asymmetrical, symmetrical, or “pancake,” and the difference comes down to what kind of hook potential you’re literally aiming for.

Coverstock is the outer part of the ball, typically made from reactive resin, particles, and urethane for more advanced players, and plastic and polyester coverstocks for spares and beginner bowling balls.
