ball hangs on wrong side of thumb
« on: January 05, 2010, 04:45:58 AM »
I'm a left handed bowler.  The ball always hang on the outside of my thumb (right side of thumb on left hand).  I have a big callus there.  I keep trying to open up the side of the thumb hole but it seems to always catch there.  Does anybody know of anything else to try that will help?

Probably need to have thumb pitches checked by your local pro shop.

what I mean by "hangs" is that it feels like the entire weight of the ball sits on the outside of my left thumb at the knuckle.  After every time I bowl, it always feel sore at the spot.
