Bowling ball push device

A device for pushing a bowling ball having finger holes, the device comprising:

• a pole that extends linearly from a grip end to a distal end that is opposite the grip end, wherein a push direction is defined from the grip end to the distal end and a withdrawal direction is defined from the distal end to the grip end, wherein the grip end includes a textured surface, and wherein the textured surface is configured to be gripped by a user;
• two fingers configured to be received within the finger holes of the bowling ball, wherein each of the two fingers has a base end and a tip end that is opposite the base end;
• and
• a pole coupler that couples the base end of each of the two fingers to the distal end of the pole such that when the two fingers are received in finger holes, the two fingers are relatively fixed with the bowling ball other than in the withdrawal direction;
• wherein a pole axis is defined between the grip end and the distal end, wherein a finger axis is defined between the base end and the tip end of each of the two fingers, and wherein the pole axis and each finger axis of the two fingers are within a common plane;
• wherein the two fingers each include a textured surface configured to increase friction between the two fingers and the finger holes to resist rotation therebetween and to resist retracting the pole from the bowling ball in the withdrawal direction;
• wherein the device is configured to push the bowling ball by positioning the two fingers into the finger holes with the tip end first, pushing the pole in the push direction, and retracting the pole from the bowling ball in the withdrawal direction.
