I prefer mine loose.  Most customers like a snug fit, but after they use their grips for three years they end up loose.  --  JohnP

Yep, not real uncommon.  I drilled a Black Widow for the best bowler in our house last week.  He bowls two leagues plus subbing some in others and bowls some tournaments.  I checked back on the drill sheet for his last ball (a Super Carbide Bomb) - it was drilled in March, '05 and has been the only ball he uses ever since.  The grips had never been changed, the ring finger grip was worn all the way through on one side.  After he realized how long it had been he had me put new grips in.  --  JohnP

I like them tight and change them every 6 months.

How about 15 years?  Last team I bowled on, the captain had never changed his grips.

TIGHT as a TIGER.... which causes cuts and bleeding...  What fun!

And finger tape seems to make me lose a good grip.
