I've been using them for 2 years with no problems at all. I have several thumbs as my thumb varies quite a bit depending on when i'm bowling or how often i've bowled. Also as my thumb shrinks while bowling i don't have to use a ton of tape

Used them for 2 years no problems and I love that all the balls now feel the same.

Best interchangeable product on the market!  I'm still using my original thumb, coming up 3 years.  I like tape, have 4-7 pieces in my thumb, now I have it in one thumb, no matter how many balls I have (plus my spare ball).  Probably won't go away from this ever.

Love it! I've had about 14 balls drilled with it thoughout the past couple of years and have had absolutely no issues with it at all. I also have 3 thumb inserts: one for when my thumb is at its smallest, one that fits most of the time, and one for when my thumb swells a lot. My thumb swells and shrinks a lot, plus it gets hung up on tape so the smooth texture of the thumb insert helps with a clean release (I do put white tape in the inside of my thumb insert, but its pushed way down so it just touches the tip of my thumb).

 

Word of advice, get it done by someone with a lot of experience. You will find people that have had bad experiences and swear it is junk. Its probably due to improper gluing or not creating a rough area for the glue to hold on to.

This is a great system...We have over 200 customers that use this products...I agree that bad installation is will be your only problem.
