Magic Carpet
« on: January 11, 2006, 02:52:15 AM »
How thick is Ron's Magic Carpet?  I only have 1 or 2 pieces of white tape in my ball.  If I take those out and put in MC, will the thumb be too tight?

My best estimate Magic Carpet is about as thick as 4 pieces of white tape


I'd go along with that.. I use MC in every ball.. good product, just watch for thumb swelling.. I've got mine drilled so I can ADD tape behind the MC, so when the thumb starts to swell, pull the tape out and things are good as new..  just wish I wouldn't go through them as fast as I do..

Funny, I have a few magic carpets that have lasted me almost 18 months now. I still have the problem of using a ton of tape (moving it in and out of the hole) but the release i get is so much more consistent with carpet that I really feel like it helps my game.

So, which way is upside down?  My instructions say to put the rounded end 1/4" from the top of the hole.

I tried it from a couple that Ron sent me.  I liked how it felt and will be buying some to try on one of my balls again.
