    Default Finger insert tightness

    How snug do you like your finger inserts? A) have to cram your fingers in. B) fingers slip in but seem to touch all around both fingers. C) one finger much tighter than the other. D) both fingers rattle around.

    B) Without a doubt.

    B but to be fair as the vending progresses I feel like I have to be careful not to insert my fingers too far - like I the inserts actual feel more open the longer I bowl, which I know makes no sense. Just my perception of how it feels.

    Appreciate the input. I have one ball where the ring finger is loose-fitting, but it wasn't when I had it put in. Don't know what happened. Guess I'll replace it

    B. Too tight and the callouses on my fingertips burn too much during a series. Too loose and I get bruising under the nail beds. I prefer equal pressure on both fingers as it seems easier to me to make axis rotation changes.
    I also like a tight thumb. Sometimes I even wonder how it comes out of the ball lol

    B for me as well. I will sometimes notice them getting tighter as a day goes on. Say I bowl more than 6 games. They will start to swell a bit. Sometimes they swell when I bowl league and then sit for a while (having a couple cold ones) and then we decide to bowl pot games. It isn't a big deal but it isn't as comfortable.
