Question
ball tracks over finger hole

Answer
If this is a new problem with a ball you have used for a long time, your release has changed.  If this is with a new ball, then the pin placement may not be in the correct place for your release.
If it is the second, then an extra hole may be able to be drilled in the ball to move the ball track.  Of course this wont work if there is an extra hole in it already.

I would have the pro shop take a look at the ball and then watch you throw a few shots so they can come up with an idea to solve the problem.

Good luck,
Chip
