Well, I guess that takes care of the sweaty ball theory then, doesn't it? notadmblnd Oct 2014 #15

Using the vents is optional of course - sort of like bowling after Ebola exposure. polichick Oct 2014 #17

A person with sweaty hands can not grip i.e. hang on to the ball and throw it down the lane. notadmblnd Oct 2014 #27

Wonderfully descriptive flamingdem Oct 2014 #48

So far, no. Warpy Oct 2014 #54
