From Humbled beginnings

In 1991, our journey began with the humblest of origins. Our very first bowling balls were poured using a KFC bucket, back when we were known as High Score Products (HSP). Today, a KFC bucket holds a special place in a display case within our conference room. It serves as a constant reminder of the distance we've covered and the remarkable journey that still lies ahead.

BILL CHRISMAN

In Loving Memory: June 19, 1949 - September 28, 2023

High Score Products was originally founded in 1985 by Bill Chrisman, to market a new product he had developed. Mr. Chrisman had noticed urethane bowling balls (a relatively new innovation in ball design) were porous and tended to soak the oil from the bowling lanes. The new product was marketed as U Clean / U Score Urethane Bowling Ball Cleaner™.

High Score Products remained a one product company until 1991, when availability of capital and time coincided with the opportunity to manufacture bowling balls. Mr. Chrisman's experience in other industries and his long term involvement with bowling led him to believe that small quantity OEM private label manufacturing was a viable market being completely ignored by large manufacturers. In the spring of 1991, Mr. Chrisman hired Keith Orton, a pioneer in manufacturing high performance urethane bowling balls, to set up a facility to manufacture bowling balls for High Score Products.
