Bowling bags
Bowling
bags are available in more styles, colors and variations than ever before.
Today, choosing your bowling bag can be an expression of your style
in addition to a functional bag to haul your bowling equipment. The
boring bowling bags of yesterday are no longer the only option for bowlers
to pack bowling gear. Some of the variations of bowling bags available
include:
• Various types of bowling bags – rollers, totes, accessory
bags and multi-option bags are all available. Examples of subsets of
the roller bag include single roller, double roller, three roller or
four roller bags.
• Colors – the vast array of colors available makes it possible
to express your personality through the color choice on your bowling
bags.
• Useful accessories such as a “Joey,” a stretchy
bag that attaches to the top of a roller bag to haul your bowling ball
are really beneficial to the bowler. The “Joey” usually
attached with a strong Velcro strap around the extended handle of wheeled
bowling bags. This is especially useful to carry an extra bowling bowl
with you.
• Two ball totes prove useful to those who need to carry two bowling
balls in their bag.
Choosing a bowling bag can be daunting considering the great variety
available. It may be especially overwhelming to a new bowler. When deciding
on bowling bags, be sure to consider the following tips:
• Evaluate your needs for a bowling bag. Try to estimate how
often you will use your bag and how much gear you think you will need
to haul each time you use your bowling bag.
• The main types of bowling bags are divided into two main groups:
totes (that you carry) and roller bags (that you wheel). Don’t
forget that bowling balls are heavy when considering which is best for
you. If you plan to schlep two bowling balls averaging 15 pounds each,
you will be lugging more than 30 pounds after you add shoes and other
accessories to your bowling bag.
• The one-ball bag versus the two-ball bag: this is an essential
consideration because some bowlers choose to haul one ball while others
need two or more.
Bowling bags offer a great gear-hauling utility for bowlers. It is
essential for frequent bowlers to find the right bowling bag to fit
their individual needs and style. Choosing bowling bags requires a careful
evaluation of your needs as a bowler and your tastes in carrying or
rolling potentially heavy bags.
