Did vise discontinue VACU grips????
« on: March 13, 2013, 11:34:00 AM »
I have Vacu grips in all my equipment and have been kinda out of the loop for a while on whats going on in the bowling world. All I can find these days is the sleeves that go in the bottom of the finger grip for VACU grips.

Did they go off and do away with these over the last 2 years???? Or do you just use the regular grips with the inserts?

I wouldnt doubt that they stopped making those pieces. Most shops now drill the 1 1/32 hole on top and drill a 15/16 or 31/32 at the bottom of the hole.That does the EXACT same thing as those green pieces do....just easier that way for the most part.

Well I am talking about all i can find is those pieces. I can't find the actual vacu grips. From what I remember they are a different size than standard grips if I am not mistaken.

They should be the same sizes as the other inserts. I dont think they make special sizes for just the vacu system

There still available, I think there's a newer or updated way of doing it today then 2 years ago.

My IQ Tour Pearl has these as does all the rest of my equipment too.
