burning my palm on release?

I have to admit, I have never seen anyone with a problem like yours. So I can't say that in my bowing world, you not alone! ( I know its not funny, but it does seem to be a very rare finger problem with bowlers around here! Bowl1820 had some great ideas, and as always, go talk to your local bowling pro/driller. Good luck...

When I did use a glove, I was able to get used to it almost instantly. My situation may have been different bowling thumbless. I kept the thumb in the glove which then gave me more overall grip on the ball and kept it from shifting. Once you have used a glove though, it feels funny without it. So in my book:

It's easy to get used to a golf/bowling/baseball glove but it's harder to get used to NOT using one.

Why not just try it? What is it, $20 for a golf glove? You will need to go to a sporting goods store for it though. You probably won't find a right handed glove at Walmart. Or just buy a bowling glove. Do proshops carry them or do you have to order it? You could have a golf glove TODAY.

Even a somewhat bad fit, usually the problems are always the thumb, ring finger, or Hello Mr 10 pin finger!! Very strange place to have problems! Are you of this planet??? Do you know a guy named, Bowula???

Doh!!! For some reason didn't even think of which finger, even though the OP said index.

Serious Duh!!! moment.



Sorry OP didn't mean to side track your thread.

I can't edit a post in IE or Firefox. I don't know why. Anyway the first line in my last post is supposed to start out "When I did use a glove..."
