I am about to pick up the game again, after a three year hiatus due to a back injury. I have three dozen, very expensive balls, that are approximately 3 1/2 years old. Question: How much do they lose sitting around for that period of time (they were indoors)? Paul

Well, at least you'll have something to blame your shitty play on. Like how the pins are to blame when you bowl poorly.

Google that question. I did, and found a website by Frank somethingorother who worked at USGA lab for many years. His study found solid core balls lost practically nothing after 10 years. Wound balls did, though.

Would have to assume the only thing different would be the technology itself.
