I've been bowling with these for the past 3 weeks. I have some serious arthritis pain and swelling in my middle and ring fingers on my bowling hand. I was considering quitting bowling but in desperation I decided to try these out. It doesn't make the pain and swelling go away but it has allowed me to hang onto the ball a lot longer so that I'm no longer dropping the ball before the proper release point. The arthritis has weakened my bowling fingers to the point that I couldn't hang onto the ball long enough to keep my hand behind the ball before the release point. With the Bowling Fingers device my release is a lot stronger now. The other guys in league noticed my stronger strikes and asked me questions like "did you get a new bowling ball" or "did you get a new glove"?

[@andrewfoglestad3641]

I've actually tried these, a guy who stated who was the one who developed these ( I live in IL ) was at the house that I normally bowl at. I found them to be kind of painful. I agree 100% that some kind of padding is needed and it made above my knuckles uncomfortable.

[@brunsnick]

Doesn’t need much but something!

[@taostealth]

I have been using these for a few years and it works good for me. I needed this for strength due to those 2 fingers being sore after league bowling. No more pain.

[@brunsnick]

Awesome!

[@doctorrobert60]

Interesting device that may be of some help but who knows? May be more comfortable if had hinge that flexed with the fingers? What would be the effect of just taping the fingers together as the base of the fingers? The things that us bowlers will try to get an advantage! Same with golfers who are offered gimmicks to get some type of advantage.

[@reggiemarquez7485]

What i do is. I use a regular white tape and it's been working for a number of years..

[@IanNachtigall]

I use a Mongoose Lifter. It sort of and I use that loosely, does a similar thing, depending on how you wear it. I use more to keep my wrist from opening and to stay under the ball. It does restrict finger movement to some degree…. Anyway, I will just stick with my Mongoose

[@markk9171]

I tried these when they first came out and was bowling much more consistently. I have bad hands and I noticed my fingers did not hurt the way they normally do after 3 games. I lost them and continued bowling without them. I didn't make the connection right away but my average started dropping pretty quickly. I picked up a new pack, and right away I was back on track. My average went back up and hand my hand feels better too.

[@larrylacroix3944]

Nick’ 3:31 After watching you tune this finger vise on your fingers, I hope that you don’t get hurt or injure your fingers. 6:05 yeah Nick I’d go back to your Sarge grip’ but I like the bowling gadgets you have been showing from the start. I did not know that product your showing us was out there.

All good here! Was a good demo

Looks like they are on backwards..just because of the bend. Seems u could just put a cotton ball netween your fingers and tape them together..

[@chrishoffman9321]

I thought the Easter grip was supposed to cut down Rev rate.

[@brunsnick]

It does for me after seeing this SPECTO data, but I never try to really “go after it” at the bottom in my videos.

[@iceman5117]

It depends on why you made the switch. If you're constantly blowing out tendons fingertip, going to sarge easter will increase your rev rate

[@trackboy311]

Why would you use a black ball to show revs.

[@notonyourlife7939]

What's next... magnets to stick in your shoes, guaranteed to keep you behind the foul line? These gadgets are hilarious. Want more revs? 1) Practice. 2) Get coaching. 3) Practice. 4) Get more coaching. 5) Did I mention practice? But for those who believe that technique comes in a bag for $19.95, I have some magic crystals for sale that will increase your rev rate and guarantee at least one 300 per set... act now, and you'll get a second set of crystals that'll get the crab grass out of your lawn, ABSOLUTELY FREE! Just hang them off the porch....🤣🤣🤣👍

[@brunsnick]

I’ll buy 10 crystals. I need to hit 450.

[@XenoGuru]

One of the biggest problems that bowlers have is they don't have the way, time, or money to experiment with different grips and pitches on a ball to find the one that works best for them. I work in a pro shop from time to time when the owner is swamped with work and needs help catching up. Even as great of a fitter as he is, he's not an "oracle." He can only make the ball fit properly, but can not tell the customer exactly what type of grip would give them the desired feel they really want.

[@ChrisMueller-e9i]

I broke the my knuckle on my ring finger and had a lot pain in the fingers but after using this product has helped over come this issue and it also has helped me in creating more revs it makes me stay behind the ball more.

[@larrylacroix3944]

What would be your ball recommendations for a low rev low speed bowler on synthetic lanes. Thinking a solid because been using pearl balls and they are useless. Put surface on them then put surface on them and can not find anything consistent. Been thinking about possibly going to a hammer ball just to get away from storm products. Help if you can

I like Teal Rhino Pro for you. If you’re set on Hammer, Purple Solid Reactive all day is comparable. 👍🏻

[@bowlingxp8345]

Interesting product. I have no clue as to WHY it would raise RPM though. But you Nick are not a good subject to test this as you had to change from sarge grip which lowers RPM a bit.

I am working on a device I am going to call Robo Hand. Essentially, it does everything for you, so you can be a pro bowler even if you have never bowled before. It completely eliminates having to practice in order to get better. I am hoping that later versions will make it so you don't even have to show up as it will just go to the bowling alley and bowl for you. 😅

I guess it would give someone with weak fingers more support. Idk how much longevity it would have since youre not generating muscle/muscle memory in your hand. Similar to how wristbands are a major handicap to your game. Since your wrist will begin to depend on the device

[@iceman5117]

It all depends on the reason for using the device. If you have a weak or injured hand or wrist, using a brace is going to make you much more consistent

[@SirJoelsuf1]

I wonder how this would be on 2 handed bowlers? I just recently went two handed since my thumb gets in the way of creating ANY kind of rotation at all. Seriously, my RPMs were not even 200 with my thumb in the ball.

[@iceman5117]

1) you don't need a bunch of rotation 2) rotation is a function of timing and wrist position. If your thumb isn't clearing correctly, either you're drilled incorrectly, or your timing is way off. There are a ton of drills to practice your timing and position

[@Jarrid313]

If you think you need this as a 2 hander you're doing something wrong

[@notonyourlife7939]

It'll do the same thing that it does for 1 handers: Absolutely nothing. Besides, more revs is generally the LAST thing that 2 handers need...

[@iceman5117]

@@notonyourlife7939 I think he meant that he switched to 2 handed because he was having difficulty generating revs one handed

[@illmatic215]

Forget what people are saying about the ball needs to be drilled better or you dont need two handed. I had the same problem went two handed and it was a night and day difference in release, rev rate, ball motion, and consistency. My pro shop recommended for me to make the switch

[@rickystucker6812]

Just recently became aware of a usbc rule. You do not need bowling shoes! Rule says shoes that are not worn outside of the lanes. And i am a planter not a slider. Generated more revs and speed. I can play way further in now

Right Hand only too I think.

[@edcnoyb3782]

@@brunsnick OK so completely useless for me I actually was able to get around my finger pain by wearing one of those compression arthritis gloves on my left hand I just had to cut off the thumb. The glove allows me to bowl with no pain problem solved. As for my rev rate. I actually have a super slow ball speed. So for me a 400 or better rev rate would actually hurt my game more than it would help it. As you already know you want your rev rate to compliment your average ball speed whatever it is. Ball speed and revs need to work together. As you already know.

[@odellus]

specto rev rate is incredibly inaccurate. the shot at 10:49 is almost exactly 9 frames for one full rev, at 60 fps that's right at 400 rpm. the next shot with the device is slightly less than 9 frames for one full rev, so approximately 415 which is obviously well within margin of error. i would say it doesn't affect your rev rate at all rather it looks like it's causing your axis rotation to increase slightly.

[@brunsnick]

SPECTO is calculated and it does get thrown off sometimes, but here looks like it was spot on.

[@bowlingxp8345]

@@brunsnick it gets thrown off most times actually, because it cannot directly count RPMs. It uses other data to guess it. Pretty disappointing, but i hope they improve it.
