the bevel sander uaed by the pro shop is designed for that purpose. Basically it is a straight shaft with the end drilled and tapeed in order for a screw to secure the sanding discs

Be careful with those things. It's easy to open up the hole too much and ruin the thumb hole. I've done it. Have the pro-shop owner give you a quick lesson and some tips.

For gradual (small changes) and smooth sanding of thumb holes, consider using 1-inch by 2-inch pieces of sanding screens. You can find them at home improvement stores in the painting supplies section. They're easier to use than sand paper, are cheaper, and last longer.
