Ball Weight

Just like in real bowling, ball weight plays a critical role in Silver Strike. The weight of the bowler's ball in SSB affects the ball's momentum, control and pin action just as if the player were on a real lane.

Ball Weight Control Momentum Pin Action
12 lbs. Easiest Lowest Weakest
13 lbs. Easy Low Weak
14 lbs. Medium Medium Medium
15 lbs. Hard High Good
16 lbs. Hardest Highest Greatest
How to Change Ball Weight:

Press the BALL WEIGHT button while setting up your shot. The weight will go up one pound, from 12lbs. - 16lbs., each time the button is pressed. You may change the ball weight prior to each roll in a frame.

Pro Tip Use a heavier ball for the most impact on your first shot and select a lighter ball for the greatest control on tight pickups.
