Clutch Bowling Launches New Product Compatible with Kegel's Specto
Lake Wales, FL – 7/16/18: Specto Bowling and Clutch Bowling have agreed to offer exclusive features and graphic integration to users who own both Specto and Clutch Bowling systems.
Clutch Bowling is a company that offers dynamic effects, and interactive elements projected directly onto bowling lanes.

Specto is a tracking system for centers, bowlers, and coaches. It records information about bowlers’ shots using a high-power sensor and displays it to them on an easy-to-use app.
The sharing of hardware between both systems allows centers to install them for a cheaper price. This will be especially helpful for those centers that cater to both serious and casual bowlers and want innovative systems that will meet needs for both major segments of their business.
The teams at Clutch and Specto have worked together to develop special features which will be exclusive to people who own both systems. These features will enhance both systems offering more entertainment options as well as games that will improve bowling skill.
