Interchangeable Thumb Benefits

Do you struggle hitting your target? Does your bowling ball feel different in your hand between competitions? Excessive grip pressure or squeezing to hold onto the bowling ball will result in errant shots.

In this video, Scott Pohl, owner of On Track Pro Shop, explains that if you have multiple bowling balls and they all feel different to you, an interchangeable thumb insert will give you confidence in your grip.

YMMV. In my case, I tried VISE IT on a couple balls years ago and one of them broke during release. Not only did it scare the crap out of me, narrowly avoiding serious injury, but it turned me off on using interchangeable thumbs going forward. I feel much more comfortable and confident having a thumb slug in each ball that has never broken or failed on me once in over 30 years of bowling than use a newer interchangeable system that literally failed on me within weeks of having it installed.

I have them in every ball I use. Will not drill a ball without them

I still don't get it. I mean it sounds great on paper. If you have your thumb hole drilled correctly there should be no point in having one. Been bowling for over 20 years and never had one scenario of my thumb hole being of concern. Never taped my balls either and averaged 230-240 a season.
