Bowling - Finger holes
Expert: Chip Aki - 11/2/2009
Question
Hello,
I have drilled a five holes bowling ball and I want to know if I'm obliged for each throw to have all the fingers in their holes ? When I read the rules, they speak about the fact that all my fingers much reach their holes not that they have to be in, and what will be the trouble if for example I put my middle finger in the index hole ?
By the way, concerning the balance of the ball it will takes in consideration an average distance of the four holes with the thumb one in order to define the center of the grip isn't it ?
BR,
Vincent
Answer
The grip holes must be able to be covered by your hand or the hole now becomes a balance hole and you can only have one of those. If you do not have the extra balance hole you should be ok unless two of the grip holes are left uncovered.
The center of the grip would be based on the finger holes furthest from the thumb.
