Grip Or no Grip?

[Jerry]

Grip Or no Grip? which has more control and power?

[shaun]

....what do you mean by grip or no grip? because all raquets come with grips.

[Jerry]

ya but i mean it is better if you put another grip over the original one?

[shaun]

Oh depends how you like it. I personally prefer to have a grip over the original one all because i like the handle to be a bit larger in diameter. i find that it gives me better controll and more power because i seem to be able to hold the raquet better with a bit larger handle.
hope this helps =p

An overgrip usually gives a better and firmer grip. And like Shaun mentioned, u can use an overgrip to adjust the size of the grip to suite yr hand size.
There are a wide variety of overgrip out there, from spongy to hard to towelling grip.
Usually u have to try out a few before finding one u like.
And if u watch AE2001 u would see lots of players using towelling grip, tape all the way to the beginning of the shaft.

oh i see . so do you guys prefer an overgrip ? what kind of grips do you guys use?

[shaun]

i'm using the pro kinnex super grip

[Todd]

i see alot using the yonex super grap kind, but i think it loses its "grippiness" pretty quick

grip is a very personal preference. No right or wrong answer. Everybody grip their badminton racket differently. Everybody sweat differently.

Well said.

That's because their hands sweat too much...
For someone like me who doesn't get sweaty hands much at all, it suits me really well.
Also, I like the feel of it... not too tacky, yet not too dry, or thick either.
