Tony Ruocco joins us for this second episode of Talk Bowling.

Our first viewer question came from Brandon Flade. We have learned the his wife is pregnant and would like to give them a free Mini Viz-A-Ball It's A Boy or a Mini Viz-A-Ball It's A Girl. His question was “How does one polish a ball? Is there something I could buy or do you have to take the ball to a proshop?"

We have added the ability subscribe in iTunes. Look in the upper right hand corner for the link.

We added the ability for users to put their bowling videos on bowlingball.com. Simply click on the User Submitted Videos tab on any product page and follow the instructions.

In our inaugural episode of Talk Bowling, we are going to tell you alittle bit about ourselves, changes to bowlingball.com, and our review of the Storm Virtual Gravity.

Brian Halstrom – Has been bowling for 20 years and has competed in youth tournaments.  He currently averages 220.  He graduated from Vincennes University with a degree in Bowling Industry Management.

John Congdon – Has bowled his entire life, but not consistently.  He has only bowled in leagues and started getting serious about 5 years ago.  He started working for bowlingball.com in 2004 and has been improving ever since.

bowlingball.com has added a couple of changes to their website.  Added Checkout by Amazon and PayPal Pay Later.  We have also taken the entire site to Free Shipping.

The Storm Virtual Gravity is coming out November 17, 2008.  We had a chance to test it and we are very impressed.  John couldn’t throw the ball at its out of box(OOB) finish because of his lower ball speed.  He then polished it up and really liked the look it gave him on the lane.  Brian was able to throw it OOB because of his higher speed and rotation.  Watch the video on the product page to see him in action.  He is hooking the whole lane with the ball.

We have to give credit where credit is do.  We were inspired by other podcasts out there, you will see elements from many of them.  You should check these out as well:
