Time to get switch grips for thumb.

[vdubtx]

a naked thumb hole always seems strange to me. Maybe because bowlers use the thumb tape on their thumb, but for those bowlers who don't use no tape or whatever inside their thumb slug/IT/SG or on the their thumb, makes me wonder how they get consistent timing.....

I use at least 1 piece of white tape on the thumb pad side in every thumb. I also use the VISE blue tape on the back of my thumb for smooth release.

I dont have any tape in any of my balls, my thumb never swells. It could be that my PSO is great at getting a good fit, or that for some reason i dont have swelling issues. I use the same thumb slug in all of my balls.

I use turbo tape on back and side of my thumb. Just really like the feel.
Most of my balls the thumb just fits, or a single piece of tape. This last one I can actually use a couple pieces of tape.

I don't like the grippy tape, except the thickness. I use a slick piece over it or a couple of the slick pieces by itself.

I don't ever really swell/shrink during bowling. Whatever it is that day is pretty much where it stays, other than a tad bigger early morning for whatever reason.

Well props to my PSO! Brought my balls in Wednesday to get Switch Grips and bought a Pitbull and he had all five balls done for me today at 4:30! Really like switch grips and think it will be a good move for me. As far as the Pitbull goes, wow does it hook. Had to move 5 with my feet and target and it hits hard!

That's awesome! Sounds like good news with the new ball too. Everyone that I've talked to about it compares it to an amped up Grudge. Would you agree with that also?

Good luck tomorrow!

My thumb rarely ever swells as well. But I have started using Hada tape on my thumb and once you get used to it it's hard to go back to not using it.

Well, somarnso,good. Really like the switch grips! Today, after the first game, my thumb swelled and switched to larger changed size and I was able to shoot a nice series, 623. Usually I would have to take my thumb half way out and would change my shot. I had one my regular size the other larger. I'm gonna have my PSO make me a another set of each size. This way I can Ave one in my strike ball and spare ball so it wouldn't take up time waiting for the hall to come back from ball return and then switching out the grip from one ball to the other. Tomorrow, I never know how the house will be, so the switch grips will be a welcome site there!

I had turbo switch grip installed and I really like them so far. My thumb changes size continuously having two different size thumb slugs has been great.

What's your thumb pitches?

I'm assuming that you don't really like tight snug thumb fit?

i have changed because i needed to have all my equipment fit the same. I got two switch grips for the thumb changing due to changing weather.
