Bowling
shoes are something that most people rent. Of course,
if you are getting serious about bowling, you ought to seriously
consider buying your own pair of bowling shoes. Why put your
feet into a pair of shoes that reek from hundreds of different
pairs of feet when you can put on a pair of bowling shoes
that reek of only your own feet?!
All jokes aside, a good pair of bowling shoes is going to
greatly change and improve your game. After all, much of how
your ball rolls and hooks and reacts depends on your approach,
and your approach depends greatly on your bowling shoes.
Generally, bowling shoes come with one sliding sole and one
traction sole -- you may not have realized this, because the
shoes you rent from bowling alleys are both the same. The
soles are multi-purpose, neither specifically for sliding
or braking
.When buying bowling shoes with different soles, it is important
to consider if you are right or left handed. A right handed
person will have a left sliding shoe and vice versa. Also,
if you play at many different lanes, you may want bowling
shoes with interchangeable soles -- soles that can be changed
depending on the lane conditions.
