I currently use a ten-pound Rattler bowling ball. I am looking into getting a 12-pound ball and I am looking for suggestions. I throw a hook that is abut medium curve. I average around 135 and bowl on medium-heavy lane conditions. I bowl in a league and I am hoping to improve my game.

I've read you should use a ball approximately one-tenth of your weight. I regularly use a 15 or 16 pound ball, even though it's more than 10% of my weight. I guess I'd recommend trying to use the heaviest ball you are comfortable with. 10 pounds is pretty light, 12 is better.
