ive been practicing consistently playing between 20-30games a week for the past several weeks. naturally, my thumb has gotten larger and ive developed calluses at the base of my thumb and on my palm below the pointing finger. all pretty bearable but not too pleasing for the ones i handshake..hah
i should be able to remedy the callus at the base of my thumb by beveling the thumb hole and wearing a glove for the palm callus.

the one that irritates me the most is this lingering cut below my ring finger where the finger enters the grip(right below the 1st bend of the finger).  this usually gets reopened after a few games.  in the past ive alleviated the problem by using robby's skin patch around this area but this only lasts for a few games and then id have to reapply the patch.  does anyone else have this issue? i was thinking of using some sort of tape similar to what vise sells but that would mean moving one size up on the finger grips. before i switch out all my balls id like some feedback from those using finger tapes to avoid this very same issue im having.  
could these cuts around the bend of the fingers be related to an improper ball fitment?  
im holding my finger in pain right now and will need a few days for this cut to heal.
