Bowling Ball Sanding

Questions for you bowlers out there!?
I have been bowling for years, but have not owned my own custom ball for like 13 years...just bowling for fun mostly and throwing 14 lb house balls. Well I recently purchased two balls, a sanded ebonite big time and an ebonite skull ball (spare ball)....I can throw the spare ball pretty well. I throw with a hook, right handed just for your fyi. My big time ball hooks wayyyyy too much and I've had it polished twice. So I just purchased an Ebonite Crossfire which has less hook potential and will hopefully solve that. My average has gone from about 180 with house balls to 120 with my new ones. I got finger grips put into my new ones also, which is different for me. The span in uncomfortable, my wrist hurts, my left leg kills me after about 3 games and my ball is all over the place. Is this normal? Should I look into these issues before I get my Crossfire drilled? I'm really frustrated though and not sure what to do. What do you all suggest?
Ok, I see several problems here. First I want to say that going from a house ball to a finger tip will take time for you to get use to. Do you have anyone who can guide you through the process? Second, I want to point out that your spare ball shouldn't hook more than a board. That kind of defeat the purpose of having a spare ball. Spare ball are meant to go straight. Now I know that a skull ball have a clear (soft cover) stock so it will hook about a board or two...but not more than that.
Why is your Big Time hooking too much?!?! Chances are you're turning your hand wrong or twisting your wrist which explains why your wrist hurt. Never bend or twist your wrist. That's not a proper way to hook the ball. When you have a performance ball, you have to let the ball do what it's design to do. Don't force it. Stay under the ball and use your finger tips to release the ball. Let the ball do it own work. That's why you got finger tip in the first place right?
Your left leg probably hurts because you are trying to add more speed into your ball in order for it not to hook too much. I have the same problem when the lane dry up. You tend to walk faster, increasing your speed and your sliding, just to add alittle more speed making the ball goes longer and hook less.
If you insist that you are doing everything right then we can ask ourselves the next question. Are you bowling is a house that is dry? If the lane is dry, that could explain why your spare ball is hooking. You have to drill balls that match the surface of the lane. Why do you think pros have so many balls.
To address the last part of your problem I have to ask you how much you know about your driller. It is possible that the measurement of your hand is inaccurate. If you feel that the span is uncomfortable, then you should get your hand remeasure, probably by a different proshop. But please keep in mind that if this is your first time using finger tips then it's going to feel a little weird at first. I will go to another proshop and seek a second opinion before drilling another ball. I gone through several drillers myself before I found that perfect one.
Good luck

Bowling the brain for a strike? Off the top, first and only cut ? 2 time?
Eyes pop'd out
tongue gone
shaved head
ears smoothly cut
no facial hair
I proceed
fingers in sockets
thumb in mouth
loose fit
better then
no fit
I proceed
twisting
and twisting
wrenching
and ripping
pulling
and squeezing
I proceed
Finally disconnected
sanded and smoothed
this head has shape
round like a ball
will roll when tossed
I steady myself
Theirs no lane for me to bowl
no pins for me to strike
dis attached now
it's clear
her thought has got
the best of me
I've become a fool
love from top to bottom
I failed to allow the rest of me
figured to throw my brain
in her direction
I'm headless now
she I can spare
I love the poem but make it better in the second stanza. Bye
