🎳 A NEW ERA OF BOWLING AT HI JOY! 🎳
Our upgrades are complete, and we couldn’t be more excited for you to experience them!
After months of planning and installation, our brand-new string pinsetters are officially up and running — and so far, the response has been amazing! ❤️🎳
If you've bowled on string pinsetters somewhere else before, there's something you may not know: not all string pinsetters are the same! There are recreational versions that use shorter string lengths and can be installed on shorter lanes, as well as equipment designed and certified for competitive bowling. Our new pinsetters are the USBC-certified competition version.
We chose this new technology to give our customers a more reliable and enjoyable bowling experience with fewer equipment-related interruptions and more time doing what you came here to do — BOWL!
And the pinsetters aren't the only upgrade!
🙌 New automatic bumpers can now go up and down for each individual bowler! That means the kids can have bumpers while the adults bowl without them — all on the same lane.
✨ Rock N Bowl got an upgrade, too! We installed a brand-new lighting system to make your Saturday nights even more fun.
🎳 A quick note for our league bowlers:
We know string pinsetters are a big change in a sport filled with tradition, and we understand that some bowlers may be hesitant. Our new pinsetters are USBC-certified for competition, and we encourage you to come bowl on them and experience them for yourself. You might be surprised! 😉
Our league bowlers have always been an incredibly important part of Hi Joy Bowl, and we truly value your continued support and passion for the sport. We hope you'll come in with an open mind, give the new equipment a try, and experience the difference for yourself.
This was a BIG investment in the future of Hi Joy Bowl, and we are so excited to finally share it with all of you.
