Since we started this business we have maintained that you should get the bowl that is most comfortable in your hand. We still believe that to be true!
We also believe that you can make a wide drawing bowl play narrower... but you can't make a narrow bowl go wider... and still come back! You should be choosing a bowl that allows you to play all the shots in the game for the greens you play most often.
Don't be fooled by those who expound the "get the biggest, heaviest bowl" myth! It just isn't true. Be wary of those who claim you check for bowls size by stretching your fingers around the bowl... or by gripping the bowl upside down to see if it will fall out... or by putting your fingers into some contraption that "shows" you what size you "need!" Myths... every one!
