Sorry for the trouble and thanks for buying the game. We are working on an update that will address your major concerns by tomorrow. Also working on improving the game as per feedback.
I am stuck on level 26 with no idea at all how to proceed. Was enjoying the puzzle elements, up to this point where I feel it's almost impossible to get even one pin down. Also, sometimes if I put a lot of spin on the ball and it rolls slowly, there is a chance that the ball will slow down and start going in reverse. That round will have to be abandoned after that because the game doesn't register that you've thrown a ball.
If it's any comfort to know this, I was able to finish all of the levels, so none of them -- even level 26 -- is impossible. On several levels, I had to try many times before I determined the right approach. I can't recall how I beat level 26, but I can tell you that many of the higher-numbered levels require use of spin, in addition to precise (lucky) timing. I generally have a lot of patience for games like this, and in this case my patience was rewarded with all the times I uttered "Wow" in disbelief after passing particularly tricky levels.
Because of the post by mw1 about level 26, I decided to try playing that level again so I could refresh my memory about how I was able to beat it. Instead, I discovered that the app crashes every time I try to replay that level (not having that problem when replaying other levels) on my iPad Mini with retina display (last year's model).
Update for level 26 You are right, level 26 is one of the difficult levels! The app did crash on level 26 earlier, and we have taken care of it in our update 1.11 that was released on Feb 9. Hope you are not facing any issues now. Thanks!

Love good bowling games, but am very picky about 'em! So many in the store and I've played most all of 'em! Only a couple are good enough IMO to keep around, so I know I'm a tough customer to make happy when it comes to these type of games, but I always keep my eyes open for a better game!
PBA Bowling Challange is my favorite so far. I'm picky about my bowling games also. Just downloaded this one. I have high hopes for it.
