Our Story

We’re Al Hardesty's Strike Shop, a premier bowling alley in Tinley Park, IL! Our owner and founder, Al Hardesty, learned how to drill bowling balls and customize them at 17 while working for a distributor. He grew a strong passion for the industry and decided to open his own business in 1996. Since then we’ve continued to grow and provide the local area with high quality and technical bowling products for the Chicago area!

At Al Hardesty’s Strike Shop, our top priority is making sure customers are satisfied and get the products they are hoping for. We’re here to answer any questions and direct you to the correct products to satisfy your individual needs. We have more technical equipment available for more advanced players as well as equipment for beginners. We can ensure that you can find all of the best bowling products here with us!

We offer ball customizations for our customers to cater to their unique preferences as well as repair services. We have bowling lessons available for beginners who want to get into the field or previous bowlers looking to increase their skill levels. We’ll provide private lessons to those who prefer to learn one-on-one. We want to guarantee that all of your needs are taken care of here!

Come browse our selection today for a unique experience! We are located at 7601 183rd St. in Tinley Park, IL. If you are ready to book a lesson or have any other questions, please give us a call at (708) 620-5498. We look forward to seeing you soon!
