Thumb swelling - corrections
« on: April 02, 2012, 03:33:51 PM »
Lately - before i bowl i cant get my thumb in the ball. i literally have to force it in, then eventually it will fit. i just cant seem to get a good fit, to tight then too loose. what can you suggest?

Yeah...a good shop is essential to the proper fit. It is funny to me to see and hear guys complaining about their fit but still keep ging to their buddy who drills out of a garage just to save $30.

Sometimes you get what you pay for....lmfao.

<div>Metal that's good.  There is no substitute for a good pro shop.  Old age happens to all of us!  lol</div><div> </div><div>Smash49</div>

Thumb concern is corrected -- just for the record -- i was trying to do to much to the ball. also the span was about 1/4" too short - also corrected pitches. moved ring finger lower to keep behind the ball better. fit now is perfect. and i believe i can save a bit more than 30 per ball. i also believe if there was an issue with this person, there wouldn't be people waiting most every time i go.
