Foot Problems
« on: February 23, 2005, 03:40:22 AM »
These are new approaches and Baton Rouge is humid.  Anyone experiencing some foot problems at the line?  If so, what are you doing to combat it?

I know a couple of guys who just came back and were complaining of sticking problems.

We have a new house in town with the same approaches and about half the league bowlers complain about the approaches being sticky.

If you are a planter you will not notice it much but if you like to slide look out.

The best solution so far seems to be using a slide sock. I also use the red leather heel with my Dexter’s in combination with the slide sock at our new house.

Same here, I use a slide sock, and the red heel. I can not plant without alot of strain on the new knee. So I'll slide for awhile until I get the strength back in the slide leg.

As I noted in an earlier post, I had to use a slide sock to be able to slide at all.  We had one bowler stick, with a teflon pad, and hurt his back so badly that he went from 570 in doubles to 386 in singles.

Why change balls? I can miss my target with any of them!
