Seriously my big toe :). After taking a few months off, I feel like I have turf toe in my right toe. I am guessing this is because of my push off with my right foot. Anyone ever have this problem? What did you do to remedy it?

Sounds like a tendonitis issue. Ice and anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as rest will usually clear it up. Don't discount the "ice" part of the remedy. Done 3 to 4 times a day, it's far more valuable than pumping large doses of ibuprofen through your system, and there are no side-effects. Good luck.

For awhile this summer I was getting pain in my right big toe (I am RH). In my case, I figured out that it was because I was keeping the front part of my right foot down on the approach as I slid the right foot over to the left behind my body and causing the big toe to bend too much backwards. I have been doing that forever, but with age, I guess my foot is not as flexible as it once was. Could this be part of your problem?

A few years back I had GOUT that effected my big toe .. just a thought!

MI 2 AZ it very well could be. I have changed the way I slide this year and I do keep my right leg far more extended on the slide with my toe pointing down. Though my bowling has become a lot better ( more stable) it could very well be the problem

I have arthritis in the big toe of my left (sliding) foot. Its called Hallux Limitus. It hurts when you push off the toe when walking. I tape the toe before I bowl and my slide is not adversely affected by it.
