    Default New thumb slug

    If I had a thumb slug in my ball and it was opened to wide, can a new slug be put in easily and drilled so it fit better. Or would the whole need to be filled and redrilled? Hope this makes sense.

    Yeah, they'd just drill out the old slug and glue in a new one.then redrill the hole.

    Depending on how bad it is you could try adding some additional tape. If not it's no big deal I had the slug redone in my euphoria about five times when i was experimenting with different thumb pitches
