The size of the ball isn't important in your case--the size of the holes you have drilled in it is. If it's your ball, you can get whatever size holes drilled you need...so if you have a thumb two inches in diameter and you want to use a 12-pound ball, they can hook you up.

How do you keep from pinching the thumb in your bowling ball?
Get a halfway decent drill. I'm assuming it happens right at the base of the thumb? What you probably need to get done is have the thumb hole moved a little right and up (if you're right handed) or if you're left handed get the thumb hole moved left and up.
How to find proper bowling equipment to improve your game?
Bowling is a fun game. It was at the height of its popularity many years ago. In some areas of the country it is still as popular as ever. There are some high schools that have bowling as a class. Once a week the class goes to the local bowling alley, what great fun that must be!In order to be a good bowler, you need great hand-to-eye coordination. Good eye sight helps too! You also need bowling equipment that fits you properly. There are basic items that you need to have in order to bowl. Then there are specialty bowling equipment items that will help you become a better bowler.Since you cannot bowl in your street shoes, you need to have a good pair of bowling shoes. You can rent them at the bowling alley, or you can buy your own. If you are a serious bowler, you should buy your own shoes. Most people feel more comfortable wearing their own bowling shoes.Of course you need a proper fitting bowling ball. Again, you can use one of the bowling balls available at the alley, or you can buy one, which is far better for your game.

What equipment is needed in tenpin bowling?
First Response: To play tenpin bowling, at minimum you need: a bowling ball, a pair of socks, and a pair of bowling shoes. Bowling Ball - this is used to roll down the lane and knock the pins down. It varies in weight usually between six and sixteen pounds. You should use the heaviest one you can easily swing and control. A young-adult to adult male should be using a sixteen pound ball. If you do not own one, the bowling alley usually has several to choose from that you can borrow (usually for free). Pair of Bowling Shoes - this is a special type of shoe that is slick on the bottom. It allows the bowler to slide on the approach to make delivery of the ball the most effective. Years ago, many bowling alleys would allow bowlers to bowl in just their socks. This is no longer the case due to injury/lawsuits and insurance reasons for the establishment. If you do not own a pair, you may them from the lanes for a nominal fee. Pair of Socks - trust me when I say that you do not want to be sticking your bare feet into bowling shoes that have been worn by other people. There are many other accessories that can be purchased for the advanced user to aid them in their quest of the perfect game, however these are the basics to be getting on with.
