See NY Times article from 2000 that states:
Thanks largely to NASA-like advances in bowling-ball technology and the more liberal application of lubricants upon lane surfaces -- by bowling center proprietors seeking to enliven a game of fickle popularity -- the number of perfect games has...
My avatar is a Time Crystal tip. They are pretty with the transparent layer. I find them difficult to replace, however, because the plastic black pad made it hard for me to glue and it was slippery. I tried to only remove the blue tip, keep the clear and black layers on the ferrule, but that...
Reasons for bowling decline:
--- more competition from video games, organized sports, and other entertainment;
--- younger crowd has different interests;
--- modern employment and flexible competing sports make required attendance at bowling-league's set times undesirable;
--- a decline in...

I want to make sure I got NCC1515's comment right. The photo below shows a metal insert in a Rhino shaft where the insert would fit into a butt. Circling the metal insert is a dark-black plastic piece that the metal insert is glued to. This plastic piece is glued to the Rhino carbon-fiber...
Predator does refinish (recharge) shafts for $80 including replacing tip. See photo below from their video showing the refinished shaft duller than shinier shaft sent to them. See https://support.predatorgroup.com/h...06949594-Predator-Repairs-Returns-Information
