About Pro Bowls

Pro Bowls SA was formed in November 2008 by Dave Tolson and Hilton Cherry following a negotiation in Sydney Australia with Walter Jacobs of Comfitpro (Pty) Ltd, whereby Pro Bowls SA was appointed to represent Comfitpro and Taylor Bowls in Southern Africa. .

In 2012 due to a change in focus in Australasia, Pro Bowls SA was appointed as the Southern African Representative and Distributor for Taylor Bowls Scotland, and Comfitpro Shoes and Bags were phased out and replaced with Taylor Products.

On 01 April 2014 Hilton Cherry assumed full ownership of Pro Bowls SA. Assisted by his wife Jen, both being ex Inter-District bowlers, Hilton and Jen plan to run Pro Bowls SA with the same service philosophy as Taylor Bowls.

Taylor Bowls are the top seller of bowls world wide and our aim is to achieve the same status for their products in Southern Africa.

The distribution network is highlighted by the appointment of exclusive Stockists in all the main areas of South Africa, as well as Namibia and Zimbabwe. There is linkage between Pro Bowls SA and the Stockists via the Pro Bowls Website, which in turn is linked to the Taylor International site.
