Here is the next thing a beginner should think about after they have learned about the 4 step approach. Then they should quickly learn how to pick out a bowling ball and after that think about getting there own. It is important to have a bowling ball that fits your hand and is comfortable. Until you are able to get your own ball you should try to pick out one that fits your hand at the bowling center or if a friend has a ball that fits you well it is ok to use it. Now most beginner bowlers will use what is called a conventional grip in there ball. Bowling is like most every thing else you learn and progress in stages of experience. In the beginning stage of bowling you start out with a conventional grip off the rack or barrowed from a friend. Then you will get your own which it is always best to have your own equipment. The grip, first the holes, now most beginners like big holes in there ball which is ok, but you really should not have them to big or too tight really. A slight drag on the out side edge of your fingers and thumb, not so much that they stick it your hand. Now the span, the span is where the palm of your hand lays on the ball between the fingers and thumb hole. This should be measured like this, put your thumb in the thumb hole with your finger flat over the finger holes. The second crease on your middle two fingers should be about ¼ inch over the first edge of finger holes on your bowling ball. Now that is just a starting spot, put your hand in the ball middle two fingers first then the thumb, then see how it feels if it is to stretched for you the shorten it up, if it is to short then length it. In all fairness anything may feel funny at first, but after you get use to it. It will feel like that old pair of leather boots. Good Luck and Have Fun.
