Finger pitch, angle
« on: February 26, 2007, 04:25:06 AM »
I am experiencing pain on the outside, (pinky side) of the ring and middle finger. Fingers have recently been adjusted to my lack of flexibility. 3/4" reverse, away from the thumb. Which way should the holes angle, if any to help relive the pressure on the fingers? Rt. hand, use vacu-grips.

What are your lateral pitches in the fingers?

And is this joint pain or pain from friction?  --  JohnP

Do not know the lateral pitches. The pain is at the edge of the finger nail. I am developing a callus in the area. My local pro shop is a bit consevative on changes.
Merlin, when you say "pitches a little right", your speaking of the bottom of the hole? Would that make the edge of the finger drag on release?
