Answer
Yes. The weight of a ball is one of the most important factors to consider when buying/using a ball. If your ball is too heavy you won't have the speed you need to get the ball to the other end with enough momentum left over to crash through the pins, and also your swing is more likely to go all over the place.
Similarly, if your ball is too light, you will have too much speed and your ball will just bounce off the pins (especially if it's plastic) and not hit the full set of pins. Also, when your ball is too light you tend to swig your arm faster and become more reckless in terms of accuracy.
