Question
Hi, ive just gotten a new bowling ball and its fingertipped for my first time. Everytime i go bowling i cut the inside of my middle finger..is there anyway i can fix that without having to but bowling tape..maybe like using duct tape. Any ideas please let me know.

Answer
You need to have the ball checked to make sure it fits properly.  Most bowlers only have to use protection tape if they bowl a lot of games, like the pros.
This is not something you should be having to deal with, but if not corrected, the protection tape is is the best alternative.
