Magic Carpet

[Bowling Balls Australia]

Hi all

We have the chance to pick up the distributorship for "Magic Carpet", a thumb "pad" which apparently helps prevent soreness and also gives you more hand in the ball.

To do the exercise properly we have to make a sizeable commitment to it, something I don't really want to do unless we know there will be a market for it.

A couple of questions....has anybody used it and if so, what benefits do you get out of it? Secondly, at $3.00 per unit (pack of 10, so $30.00 delivered), would anybody be willing to give it a go.

I would greatly appreciate everyone's feedback &/or opinion.

Thanks & regards.....Max

Max,
I tried it for a while, it felt a little weird on the back of the thumb initially but it certainly seemed to give a little more 'feel' or hand on the shot. I don't think it allowed me to get out of the ball as quick as I would like but it made the release a little more consistent even if it was consistently late. It certainly made me stopped releasing too early!! I stopped using it after a couple of months and now use moulded thumbs which are the best thing sinced sliced bread.
