Bowling Solutions 2501 South York Road, Gastonia, NC 28052

"Fix's my hand span and my thumb finally got my hand not hurt my average went up 30 pins I would recommend this place to get a ball fixed or buy one there"

"The wife and I decided to try this bowling thing - purchased balls, shoes, bags, etc. online. When balls came in we googled a few places to get them fitted and drilled. Bowling Solutions was fairly close and had the best reviews. In particular, everyone spoke highly of the GM, Matt and the experience he gave. All the reviews were spot on! Matt was awesome and a huge help. This will be our home bowling shop from now on!"

"The last time I bowled competitively was when I was on the Juniors Bowler’s Tour at the age of 15, I’m now 35. After a 20-year hiatus, I recently returned to the sport. I purchased all new equipment from another Pro Shop & started practicing. After getting my swing back, I started experiencing a lot of hand, wrist, forearm & elbow pain. At first I thought it was just the fact of getting older as the pain always returned after bowling & lasted about a week. This is when I found Matt & Chuck at Bowling Solutions in Gastonia, NC. I knew within a few minutes of speaking with Matt, I was going to be a customer. Matt immediately started to look into my problem & found my thumb to be pitched 5/8” under my palm. Seeing this shocked me, even I knew this was bad. Matt told me this is the likely cause for the pain you are experiencing. He also suggested shortening my span on my middle finger & to only make changes to one ball prior to fixing the rest in my bag. Matt & Chuck got me all dialed in. Since then, all of my original equipment has been repaired & new equipment has & will only be drilled here from now on. I’ve bowled many games since then, I’m averaging higher, revs are up & most of all, I’m pain free! Do yourself a favor & take it from me… KNOW WHO YOUR PRO SHOP OPERATOR IS! Go see Matt & Chuck at Bowling Solutions in Gastonia. The amount of knowledge they have for the sport is priceless. I guarantee you’ll become a life long customer & friend just like I did."

"Matthew was such a huge help. He answered my questions with detail and provided helpful tips to further my bowling! Brought in a new ball for a drilling and it literally took less than 30 minutes super grateful for bowling solutions and where I’ll be coming for now on"

"Huge shoutout to Matt for helping me on a crunched time schedule since I am back and forth between home and college. After taking a break from bowling for 4 years I was due for a span check. Turns out my span has changed and I can feel a big difference. Matt was able to plug the finger holes and redrill them on three of my old balls in addition to drilling two new balls for me (Storm Phaze III and a Purple Hammer). He also put a few of my older balls into their rejuvenator, which takes trapped oil and dirt out of the bowling ball for like new performance. Definitely stop by Bowling Solutions Gastonia where either Matthew Willborn or Chuck Gardner II will treat you right and can offer lessons if needed. I will mention I have been going to this pro shop since they opened (probably around 2010 or sooner) and bowled on their travel team around 5 years ago. I have never been disappointed, and they are open to share a wealth of knowledge. They are definitely worth a drive too even if you are not local to the Gastonia area. I don't trust my equipment with anyone else."
