Description: Vintage 1987 🎳 Columbia 300 YELLOW Dot 16lb Scarlet Ball ~ BLEEDER? ~ READ - A bleeder ball is a bowling ball that hooks more than other balls due to the way it was cured. The most popular theory is that the balls "bled" resin from their shells. - Columbia manufactured a batch of Yellow Dot bowling balls in the 1980s that were known as "bleeders". They were very popular for a time. Yes, a 1987 Columbia 300 Yellow Dot polyester bowling ball could potentially be considered a "bleeder" as certain batches of this model were known to hook more than usual due to the way Columbia cured them at the time, making them highly sought after by bowlers for their increased hooking action. Key points about "bleeder" Yellow Dots: Specific batches: **Not all Yellow Dots from 1987 were bleeders, only certain batches exhibited this excessive hooking behavior.** High demand: Due to their unique hooking characteristics, these "bleeder" Yellow Dots were highly desired by bowlers for a period. POLYESTER material: Even though it's a polyester ball, the "bleeder" characteristic was related to the manufacturing process and not necessarily the coverstock material itself.
