Hi I am currently getting a MP99 3U, but the size they only have is G5 I currently used a G4 in my ti-5 which is comfortable and G3 in my MP77 which is too big. So what I am afraid is that G5 will be too small for me and also will the MP99 3U, G5 feel different from G4? performance wise? Thanks
Just add a layer of overgrip, it will generally increase the size by 1. Even though, the extra weight might effect the balance a little bit, but the change should not be very significant.
Generally, attacking players prefer bigger grips as they need to hold the racquet more tightly to generate power. Players who like to rally and make use of deception usually use a smaller grip, which allows them turn the racquet in their hands more easily. If you cannot get your preferred G4 size, you can use a G5 size and buy a grip tape to wrap your racquet handle so that it will now be about a G4 size. One drawback with this is your racquet will be slightly heavier and also a little handle heavy.
I cannot agree more with taneepak. I'm more the deceptive/rally style player (singles mainly) And yes G4 and G5 plays and EXTREMELY big difference to me. I really dislike G4's with a passion! =D It came to the point where I can tell by just holding on to the racket's grip handle. ;P
Whatever fits your hand with overgrip factored would be the solution. I tried G4 with over and it's a bit big for my hand to use effectively. Now, when I use a G5 or 4.5, it's just right for me.
