Question

When u set do u only use ur first 3 fingers...thumb, pointer, middle?

Answer 1

Yeah, I do, other people just use ur index and thumb, but my coach told me that is the best way. Remember to set with ur hands coming together as a V-shape. Good Luck

Answer 2

The more fingers that contact the ball, the more control you have on the ball.

I use all of the fingers (and the thumbs) of each hand.  I find that I control the ball the best that way, as well as get more strength on the ball.

Answer 3

EW NO. you use all ur fingers on both hands. They fit perfectly when you do t right.

Answer 4

No you use all 10 fingers! It gives you more strength to get the ball up in the air higher! Trust me I'm on a USVBA volleyball team!! It's GI Islanders!

Answer 5

all depends on what is comfortable for u. i set with al but pinky

Answer 6

YES!

Answer 7

yes

Answer 8

I try to but not being a setter sometimes the result isn't always pretty.

Answer 9

Typically those are the fingers you use to set a ball.  You can you all 5 fingers, but a lot tougher and usually will lead to a bad set.

Answer 10

No- you use all 10 fingers. It gives you more control and accuracy

Answer 11

IT DEPENDS ON THE PASS I GET

Answer 12

normally u use all your fingers cept ur pinky most the time. the pinky is normally there for support.

Answer 13

usually its just those three somtimes people use the thumb and pointer fingers and thats it.

Answer 14

Yep!!

Answer 15

Some people do, but it's better to use four fingers; thumb, pointer, middle, and ring finger.

Answer 16

I use all but the pinky.  But of course its all a preference thing.  I mean it is true that you'll get more control with more fingers but you also don't get control if you aren't comfortable with how you are doing it so remember that.

Answer 17

Been a long time I played Volleyball. I am sitting here looking at my fingers now. I used all but my pinky I think.

Answer 18

yeah

Answer 19

Typically, just those three.  I don't think I've ever had to use my ring fingers but I certainly haven't ever used my pinkie.

Answer 20

It depends on what you feel comfortable doing.

Answer 21

well when u run up to the net to spike it the ball basically hits your  pointer, middle or ring finger and sometimes ur thumb
