How do you dull a bowling ball at home?
With sandpaper. Make sure you DULL the whole ball and not just the track since it is against the rules to dull just the track.
The reset button is a way to manually trigger the sweeper if your ball doesn't do it automatically.
On the first shot of a frame, the reset button triggers the pinsetter to pick up any pins still standing before the sweeper clears the deck.
On the second shot of the frame, the reset button triggers the sweeper to clear the deck and the pinsetter to set a new rack of ten pins.
Nine consecutive strikes but gutters both attempts in the 10th frame?
This is probably the most disappointing way to bowl a 240 game.
It's not far outside the realm of possibility. Before my brother bowled the first of his six 300 games, he had a game where he got the first 10 strikes. He was so nervous on his next shot that he threw it in the gutter. He picked up the spare for a 280 game.

The automatic scoring system can detect, using sensors or cameras, if a strike has been bowled. It then can trigger a video overlay, graphic animation or static graphics to appear on the screen, much like what a video game would do.
Each company that manufactures the scoring system has their own programming and design for graphics.

Is a 700 series good in bowling?
1) no.
2) Yes, it is hard to bowl a 700 series if you have only bowled two or three years without much practice. I think after bowling a couple years as an adult, with regular practice you could do it. Your bowling average would have to be at least in the 180's for it to be very likely to achieve this once in the season. My advice is play a consistent line to the pocket where you know you can hit the pocket. If your hooking it a lot and are inconsistent I recommend playing a straighter line to the pocket, get a ball that hooks less on the condition. If you can't stay in the pocket the whole game you can forget about getting a 700 series. You cannot play a straight ball; you must play a hook ball or you will not be able to get the 700 series. You don't have to play a lot of hook but enough hook to drive into the pocket. I usually play low to medium hook, I don't like crossing anymore boards than I have to. You must make your spares, practice your spare shots, 7 and 10 pins especially. Make your spares and try for an all mark night where you leave no opens in all 3 games and you will be well on your way to getting the 700 series. If you have only one or two opens you can still get the 700 series if your striking a lot by consistently keeping the ball in the pocket every shot. I average between 195 and 210 depending on the league I bowl on and the lane conditions. I usually have at least one 700 series a year. I tend to be a little inconsistent as I usually only bowl one league a year or every few years with little practice between league nights. But this is after bowling on league a good number of years 15+.
Steve Scores for bowling scores were 176 and 220 and 169 and 171 and find his average score.?
Add all the scores together and divide by the number of games bowled. Drop the fraction/decimal.
176+220+169+171 = 736
736 / 4 = 184.00
Drop the fraction/decimal (in this case, there isn't any): 184

Potentially, depending on where it is red filled. In national tournaments, there usually are rules prohibiting use of plugged balls.
Which major party was the last to develop in the US?
The Republican party came into existence right before the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican elected President of the United States.
How many hours a day do pro bowlers practice?
They practice probably anywhere from 4 to 6 hours a day.
Can a bowling center fire a secretary of a league?
That's a tough question.
Technically, a league is its own legal entity and as such, as league can choose to go to a different center. The league votes on the league officers.
For certified leagues in USBC, there are two concepts of leagues. The normal type, where a league has its own full set of officers and what is called a MANAGED league, where the center does the league processing, secretary work and essentially runs the league. With a Managed league, there is a requirement that a president be voted and that the president not be a family member or employee/owner of the center. This is to protect the bonding for the monies.
A center certainly has the rights to not let a person enter their establishment. This would make things difficult for the secretary to do their work, but not impossible. The center can certainly drum up support from the league board to fire the secretary.
If this is a USBC certified league, I would suggest going to BOWL.COM and contact the national rules committee for clarification and options.

Are you allowed to get things engraved in bowling balls?
Yes, you are allowed to get things engraved into a bowling ball. For example, you can get your name, last name or a nickname into the bowling ball. You can't get a picture engraved into a bowling ball because once it is engraved, it stay's that way. When you get a picture in a bowling ball, it takes away the purpose with the bowling ball.
There is a Pinsetter, which is the mechancal device used to set and pick up the pins. I've never head of a bowling setter, however.
It is better to use a 14 pound bowling ball over a 15 pound bowling ball?
What pound bowling ball you use depends on your body type and age. If you are a bit bigger and stronger you are ganna want a heavier ball cause it will hit harder. If you were to use a light ball being big and strong it would just bounce off the pins rather then knocking them down. So if you are more comfortable with a 15 lb ball then i would go with that because it would most likely hit harder.
