does anyone know of anywhere in Adelaide that a bunch of blokes can go to have their bowling speeds tested?

Diamonds in rundle street will sell you one for about $120 from memory.

Would be interesting to see.

Remember those balls that had the speed gun built in and it showed it on the little screen on the ball? Now they were dodgy cause it showed i only bowled 110. i clearly bowl 140+ ;)

Maybe try some of the ICA places

I believe the newly done up one at Albert Park has speed guns in their nets.

I know it's a bit of a distance to travel for guys on the southern side of town, but may be worth a shot

Dead set, don't go to Diamonds, bloody rip off artists.

Look on amazon.com look up Bushnell Velocity speed gun or something similar.

Will be less than $100 posted. I was quoted $320 at Diamonds and they had to order it in.
