Depends what you want the ball to do. Rubber balls really grip the lane better especially the new Canadian Softroll balls, plastic tend to skid further. Most of the pro duckpin bowlers use the Ebonite Proline ball last manufactured some 40 years ago. Although most of them think it is a rubber ball, it is plastic composite.

Good question. Balls that are made of rubber will give off an odour after being thrown from the friction that occurs. Sythetic materialed ones do not. Also, if there is a lot of conditioner on the lanes, the synthetic types do not pick it up, the rubber ones do. Other than that, the other way to find out is to ask experience players that have seen a lot of duckpin balls. Hope this helps.
