About Fusion Bowling

Fusion Bowling is the only company in the USA that focuses solely on home, amenity, and private bowling alley installations.
We have been selected by the bowling industry’s leading manufacturer, Brunswick, as its preferred partner for residential bowling projects.
Fusion Bowling is a small company, and we like it that way. Our small crew and production scale allows us to keep a tight rein on quality control.
We select each component of our bowling equipment packages with an eye toward high quality, reliability, and ease-of-use… it must be appropriate for the residential environment where a full-time bowling mechanic is not on duty.
We love making each project unique. Our customers appreciate our ability to customize their bowling alley to coordinate with their style, colors, lighting, and interior design.

Founders

Ryan Claxton

Ryan handles the administrative side of Fusion Bowling: accounting, marketing, finance, and taking out the garbage. He graduated at the top of his class with an Engineering degree from the University of Florida, and later returned to UF for a Master of Business Administration with a 4.0 GPA. Ryan has worked for engineering firms and spent nearly a decade in multifamily real estate development before joining his brother Matt to start Fusion Bowling. Words of wisdom: Hire intelligent people who have a great attitude, and then train them to do anything. Philosophy: A commitment to “doing the right thing” is a commitment to short-term inconveniences and long-term peace of mind. Ryan enjoys building Lego spaceships with his two sons.

Matt Claxton

Matt oversees project management for each of Fusion Bowling's customers. He graduated with honors with a degree in Electronics Engineering from ITT Technical Institute. Ever since his dad built a 20-lane bowling center when Matt was nine years old, he has been tinkering with, and crawling over and under bowling pinsetter machines. He has been building a wealth of knowledge in the bowling industry and installing bowling alley equipment since the late 1900s! It’s not uncommon for manufacturers of automatic scoring systems to consult Matt on their new product designs. Matt’s desire to install things perfectly is one step away from an obsessive compulsion. He gets his biggest thrills from watching customers smile when they see his finished work.

Who are Fusion Bowling's customers?

Homeowners (executives, pro athletes, and folks who just love to bowl and entertain guests)
Corporate campuses, multifamily & resort developers, and organizations for whom a bowling alley amenity would supplement their broader strategy.
People who need only a small number of lanes (typically four or less). Around 90% of our customers request two lanes.
People who have a non-traditional vision about customization and need the “wow factor”. People for whom the bland, cookie-cutter style of traditional bowling centers is insufficient.
People who are not experts in the bowling equipment business: architects, builders, and property owners who need a company that will patiently walk them through the process. Very few of our customers have prior experience designing and buying a bowling alley. Thus, it’s par for the course to hold our customer’s hand and take the time to coordinate among subcontractors and designers.
People not willing to compromise… builders not willing to risk their reputation with a very demanding clientele, and property owners who want the best product and service possible, period.

I had never put a bowling alley in a house before, and so when I was looking for a company to provide that service, I met with Matt at Fusion Bowling. Matt and his team provided all the information that I would need and made sure that I knew every detail of what I needed to do to make sure the job went smooth, they made visits to the site and numerous phone calls to me to confirm all openings and placement of all sleeving needed for wiring and made the job a huge success and a very happy client. I highly recommend Fusion for anyone looking to have a bowling alley installed, for the simple fact that the attention to detail and the communication provided from Matt and his team made the job as simple as possible.

The entire process was enjoyable. The pre-install guide was very helpful to get the site ready. We designed the whole house around the bowling alley and the homeowners couldn’t be happier. Fusion Bowling is one of the easiest subcontractors to work with.
