Why It's Worth Coming In

Our dedicated bowls shop in Eye is a small shop with a deep range. We'd rather stock every size and grip in three brands than a token selection across ten. But that’s not the only reason to drop by.

By simply browsing online, you can’t judge size, weight, grip or bias from a product photo, and you can compare half a dozen bowls in the hand in five minutes.

We’re passionate about bowls just like you, so we’re always eager to chat. We’re also well-versed in offering tailored recommendations if you’re searching for specific bowls equipment or you’re struggling to choose between different products.

What We Stock in Eye

We stock a diverse range of bowls equipment at our Suffolk bowls store. Our extensive collection includes:

We’re proud to stock top brands, including Drakes Pride, Henselite and Taylor.

Expert Advice for Beginners and Experienced Bowlers

We see everyone from people buying their first set to county players replacing a worn pair. We’re thrilled to be part of a vibrant local bowls community, and we welcome visitors of all abilities and skill levels.

Visiting us gives you access to guidance if you’re unsure what to buy, or you’re looking to improve your game or upgrade existing equipment. We can help you make decisions based on key factors, such as:

  • Size. Measured across your hand span, not guessed. We'll measure you in the shop.
  • Weight. Heavy bowls hold a line on a quick green; lighter ones are easier to deliver consistently.
  • Bias. How much the bowl curves. Different models suit different greens and different deliveries.
  • Grip. Dimpled, ridged or plain, and largely down to what feels secure in your hand.

Budget comes into it too, which is where pre-loved sets earn their keep. A graded second-hand set from a good brand will serve a new player far better than a cheap new one.

Brands and Equipment to Suit Different Players

We have brands and bowls equipment to suit different players. We stock for beginners and for county players, and the advice is the same either way: get the bowl that fits your hand.
