How to put on finger and thumb tape

[billf]

I used to use tape on my thumb, over the nail side, but it turned out it was needed only because the thumb hole was not drilled properly. I use a thumb insert or whatever it's called and have had zero problem in last year. Make sure the thumb hole is correctly drilled and you probably will not need it.

For those of us who bowl 100+ games a week, it's a great preventative measure. Many pros use it and I'm sure they don't all have improperly drilled thumb holes causing them to tape their fingers.

Whether a person is using tape on their thumb/fingers or inserting it into the thumb hole, it's a tool that every bowler can choose to use. I agree with bill, if a person is bowling a lot of games a week, it's a good preventive measure to ensure that you can bowl that many games without affecting your performance.
