If you’re reading, you’re looking for the best bowling gifts for the bowling enthusiast in your life. You may not “get it”. You may not understand your friend or loved one’s fixation with the game but you know that giving them a bowling gift will light them up like the Vegas Strip! And you came to exactly the right place!

Bowlers Paradise is the online mecca for bowlers of every skill level, from newbies to pros. We’ve got it all from the best brands in the business. So, without further ado, let’s get down to finding bowling gift ideas for the Lebowski in your life!

Is It OK to Give a Bowling Ball as a Gift?

The short answer to whether a bowling ball is appropriate as a gift comes down to who it’s for. A bowling ball can be a deeply personal item. Like an extension of the bowler’s body that is released down the lane to either gutter, strike, or spare, the bowling ball is both partner and weapon. It’s therefore inadvisable that anyone outside the sacred sphere of the game interfere. So, as bowling gift ideas go, they’re not advisable, with one exception.

The exception is beginners! If you’re looking for a bowling ball for a beginner, look no further than the most basic bowling ball of all — the plastic spare bowling ball. This ball can move with the player as their skills develop because the plastic ball’s purpose is to shoot straight without hooking and to take down spare pins. There are also many "entry-level" balls to choose from. For beginners, a ball to get started with is one of the best bowling gifts you can give!

The Gift of Swag

In case you didn’t know, bowlers can hit the lanes (especially for tournaments) with a multitude of bowling balls. Here at Bowlers Paradise, we have roller bags that accommodate from 1 to 6 balls and totes accommodating up to 3. Bowling bags are great bowling gift ideas for players of all skill levels.

For beginners, a basic 1 ball tote from a great brand like ELITE is one of the best bowling gift ideas, allowing them to hit the lanes with style. But a roller bag gives the more advanced bowler room for the collection they draw on to win. There is definitely psychological value in arriving with a fearsome bowling arsenal. If you’re giving a gift to a veteran player, they’ll really appreciate the thought. Beginners will be proud to load their plastic or entry level ball into a swagalicious bag from a top bowling brand!
