Do you mean without the thumb, or with the thumb and one of the fingers like they did in the 1900's? God gave me thumb, so, by golly, I use it. ;)

yea with or without the thumb

[dpmusic70]

With my thumb.

[jmainville]

with thumb, it always feels left out when I dont use it

LOL! "Where is Thumbkin, where is Thumbkin, here I am, here I am..." It's stuck in my head, let's get it into yours.

I use a thumb and so does my oldest son17 and my wife and daughter18,But my other son15 only uses 2 fingers and I'm getting him his own ball with the thumb and finger tips, I can't make him use it but I'll guide him towards the thumb I hope.
Oh and now my 15 year old is showing my 10 and 6 year old how to bowl with no thumb and they love it:(
I will have allot on my hands with this no thumb thing it seems:eek:

no thumb here

[branstew]

All thumb

[lefty]

No thumb here. It feels better without the thumb to me and helps me stable the ball better with 3 fingers holding the ball still.

I'm supprised how many people on here dont use their thumb, my question is how may of you use 2 hands like Jason Belmonte or 1 hand?

[bigv295]

1 hand

[No Open Tenths]

I use my thumb.
I have however been playing around with two handed,no thumb once in a while. Just something to have fun with though.
