Title: Bowling Machine
Post by: Leddster138 on June 13, 2012, 03:01:19 PM
My club are (finally) looking to get a bowling machine to help develop some of the youngsters and keep some of the adults in nick.

I wanted to know if any one had any experiences with a machine other than Bola. I grew up on these but at £2K plus I wanted to know if they are indeed the best or whether some of the lesser known (stinger etc) were any good.

Thoughts?

As we are now out of season, I thought I'd give this another go.

Any preferences to other machines other than Bola (stringer, jugs etc)

Any one/club selling their bowling machines?

A mate of mine got a second hand machine from a connection he had, i believe it was from lords indoor nets. He also got alot of used balls in reasonable condition with it for around 1k. Im not 100% sure tho, but if you give them a ring it may pay off.
