Title: Sling Blade hurts my wrist
Post by: kcheun28 on December 09, 2004, 04:50:45 PM: I purhcased a 13lbs Sling Blade and love the way the ball hook down the lane. Unfortunately, the ball hooks too early at times and my wrist hurts everytime I finish bowling. Anyways suggestion on the problem to eliminate the pain on the wrist and control the hook better?
