After reading a little more about the Tri-Grip system. It may be something for my husband to look into. Apparently the Tri-Grip is good for people with arthritis, etc. My husband has gout and he has issues with hand pain after bowling sometimes, especially after two days in a row.
I would gladly drive him down to El Centro and have his balled drilled with the Tri-Grip if it helps reduce or elimante his pain.
Looks like the closest to my area is 2-3 hours.![]()

Add me to the list as well. I'm in Yorba Linda and would come over to Riverside to have it done...just gotta figure out how much ($$$). I have a new ball ready to be drilled. I'm younger and don't have the pain issues or arthritis or gout...BUT...my semi-retired spare ball is drilled with the pinky finger hole and I've always liked that extra stability. I didn't have the 4th hole drilled when I recently switched from conventional to finger-tip...but I would like to go back to it...I just like the stability/feel of it. I definitely like the finger-tip grip over conventional...just miss the pinky hole. And...I guess my middle finger does hurt after bowling...so even though I'm young (relatively) and can "hack" it...I would like to reduce it as much as possible.
So pretty good deal, already have two customers!!

LOL,,,, I hope this helps all of you with your game! If you live in the Kansas city area, I would highly recommend you go to BP Pro Shop and and get a discount by simply saying MICHAEL sent you! Bruce knows his Stuff, having been a pro bowler, and then drilling for many of the Pro's!! He is VERY REASONABLE!
This grip is a GAME CHANGER!!! BELIEVE ME,,,, ICEMAN

Many have come looking for ICEMAN,,, All regretted the experience once they found me!!It will even help you, I am sure, maybe!! When are you going to post yourself bowling so that we can analyze if it would help! It might be a waste of money, then again with a video of you bowling, I could show it to Bruce, an X bowling Pro, and pro shop owner, who gives lessons ect... and happens to be the guy that drilled my Tri-Grip!
You may be beyond help, (know what I mean??), but then how would I know without that ACTION video!

You do realize I already posted multiple videos of me bowling AND you actually commented in the thread right?
