    Alright, I got back today from the pro shop. The dude was really shocked at how he drille the ball. He said it was way to far and even trying to stretch it wouldn't fit. So he beveled It a ton then had me throw it on the ground. I wasn't so relaxed and was gripping the ball. So I had a hard time releasing it onto the plain carpet. The thumb definatly comes out was smoother now and I can rest it fine. I didn't get to bowl because leagues were going on. So I'll get back on that

    He was shocked at how he drilled the ball? was he high when he drilled it and doesn't remember that he did wrong?

    If it was that far off that stretching it wouldn't fit, he should have plugged it and redrilled it to the proper span, Not just bevel it a ton.

    So basically he screwed up the first time, was called out on it and then his fix was to screw it up even more? If it's too far that you can't stretch then, in my opinion, beveling a ton to make it work, actually changes the pitch. Once a hack, shame on him. Twice a hack, find another driller.
