Question
is there a drilling to keep from rolling over thumb hole ?

Answer
I NEED SOME INFO FIRST.

 ARE YOU A CRANKER,STROKER OR TWEENER ?
 ARE YOU THROWING FINGERTIP OR CONVENTIONAL GRIP?
 DOES THE BALL HAVE A BIG FLAIR OR SMALL FLAIR?
 HOW CLOSE TO THE FINGER HOLES?
 DOES IT HIT THE THUMB (1ST 15 FEET OR LATE( LAST 10 FEET)?
 IF YOU HAVE MORE THAN 1 BALL, DO ALL OF THEM HIT THE THUMB
 WHAT BALL DO YOU HAVE?
 IS THE SURFACE SHINY OR DULL?
 WHERE IS THE PIN?
 DOES IT HIT THE THUMB EVERY SHOT?
