The present disclosure provides for the conditioning of a bowling ball coverstock by a controlled local environment, wherein the local environment has a relative humidity greater than an ambient relative humidity such that an evaporation rate in the local environment is less than a condensation rate in the local environment. A container, which can include a vapor barrier layer encompasses the bowling ball and a humidity source to provide the sufficient humidity within the container for a treatment period sufficient to reduce a Shore D hardness of the coverstock.
A method comprising retaining, for a conditioning treatment period, a humidity source and a bowling ball having a hygroscopic coverstock within a container, the container moveable between an open configuration for receiving the bowling ball and the humidity source and a closed configuration encompassing the bowling ball and the humidity source.
An apparatus for treating a bowling ball, the apparatus comprising:
