    Something to try as you bowl through the night.

    take some calipers and measure your thumb each game and keep track of the measurements. that way when you get a couple of different size inserts for the IT, they can be real close to your thumb size when your bowling and reduce any adjusting you might have to do.

    (some of the better proshops use calipers for getting more precise fits.)

    you can get a cheap caliper for about two bucks. (try to find one that measures 64th's or at least 32nd's


    or if the proshop will let you borrow a few of their thumb sizer's or some thumb inserts in different sizes you check with them.
