Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. What is the main advantage of the leather palm on the SG THUNDER PRO?
A leather palm provides a superior grip on the bat handle and offers greater durability and a more traditional, conforming feel compared to synthetic materials as it breaks in.
2. Why does the SG THUNDER PRO have extra protection on the bottom hand?
The bottom hand is often more exposed to impact, especially on pull and hook shots. The TPU shell and dedicated side bar are designed to protect the most vulnerable fingers and thumb from high-paced bowling.
3. Are the SG THUNDER PRO gloves suitable for a junior player?
No, this model is available in Adult sizes only (180-200mm). It is designed specifically for senior players who face a level of bowling that necessitates its advanced protective features.
4. How does the "sponge-padded spacer mesh back" improve the glove?
This construction enhances the fit by allowing the glove to conform better to the shape of your hand, while the padding adds a layer of comfort and the mesh ensures vital ventilation to keep the hands cooler.
