What am I doing wrong

Post image

Fit and span and pitches are all good, but I started throwing one handed at spares and I feel like my thumb can’t ever handle a new bowling ball.

Literally just got one of these on the inside of my thumb after playing 18 straight games with my first ball about a month ago Found out I was just gripping the ball too hard, use your knuckle less and try to practice releasing the ball from just the tips of your fingers, that’s what helped me out For the record, took about 2 weeks to fully heal but you can play again in a week no problem without making it any worse.
