How fast can you throw a Bowling Ball at a bowling alley?
I bowled a few days ago and it's been years since I bowled, anyways I did about 19.7MPH, how fast can anybody throw?

I bowled yesterday and reached a speed of around 21.5MPH with a 11Ib ball.
I did a 16Ib ball about 13MPH top and scored almost a 25 in that game LOL. I got a strike and a 9 on #10 with the 11Ib ball which made it 44 top score.

This one depends on your strengths verses technique. The record I think is about 35mph in the pros. AS far as me I can get up to about 30mph when I am using a plastic ball when using it for a 10 pin. Otherwise I am about 20 to 25mph when I am just bowling for a strike or something. The average ball speed for a bowling is about 10 to 15mph with pro bowlers averaging about 20 to 25 mph unless they change their speed for lane conditions then it can vary depending on the lane condition

I can throw 20 mph, but it usually isn't very effective unless I'm trying to bounce a split out of the back. Most strike shots go between 15-16, because that speed allows me to have the greatest range of shots on the lane and try to get the angle into the pocket that I want.
If the lane gets dry, I can increase the speed to about 17-18 on a center shot, or get close to 20 if I have no shot left and am just trying to roll it from the outside edge to the pocket.

Probably around 12 mph. You'll have better scores if you slow down the ball and use a 15 pound ball. Bowlers tend to lose control when they try to roll the ball too fast. Good luck knocking down those pins.

I've recently thrown a 16 lbs ball around 19 mph to make a spare. My strike ball is around 15 mph.
A pro named Robert Smith throws his spare ball around 35 mph. I think that's the fastest on the pro tour.

When shooting at Ten Pins, I am consistently between 23-25 mph. But first ball average is 16.5. Friend of mine throws a huge hook with an average of 18-19 mph for his first ball.

I can personally bowl around 25 mph (I do that for splits) But Osku Palerma (pro bowler) I believe they clock him at an average of 38mph or something around that for his 10 pin shots

I throw at 39 mph pretty constantly using a 13 lb ball
I knew I was fast but did not realize how far above average I really was
