    I didn't really like it, it felt slick on my thumb , plus would slide down in the hole and I didn't want to glue it in place (I figured you'd destroy it trying get it back out if you glued it)

    Here's mine, I still have it after all these years (Proshop gave it to me to test).


    Here it is started into the hole of my thumb insert. (It fits better in it than in a milled oval hole)
    you can see how the V notch is squeezed together, that's what hold's it in.
    Other than the fact that it kind of looks like a sexual aid, it might be worth a try...

    When I worked with Mo at one of his clinics last month, one of the things he was adamant about was that I didn't put my thumb into the ball until the last second in order to avoid gripping, swelling, and a whole other assortment of things that seem to be similar to this. It's made a good difference.

    That seems like good advice. I bet I'd still have a death-grip, though...

    I have tried tiered taping. It was "okay".
