Title: What type of grip do you use??
Post by: 19reading87 on April 28, 2015, 10:52:26 AM

I always chop and change my grips so just seeing what's everybody's individual choice....

Salix hybrid but upside down. A lot easier on the gloves too than some of the others (ie octopus!)

Ripple grip with an extra layer of thick binding on the bottom half of the handle.

Kookaburra's half and half grip at the moment, I doubt it'll last long before I have to change it though.

Just changed from the GM snake grip back to octopus ones. I like to change and found the GM grips a little hard.

Chevron  like to feel the handle.

I've currently got a combi grip on my Aldred, seems very comfortable.

GM Control...really awesome grip!

I use GM Shock Absorba, but I don't know why, it looks interesting. I don't really care what a grip feels like, how do I know what is good or bad? Is there any difference? Why do people think GM Control is good, who cares?

GM control really digs into the gloves and stops handle from spinning

Puma iridium. Always liked the puma combi style since my first bat, compromise from full spiral and good longevity. But thinking about switching to GM as they get rave reviews!

Always end up changing after a while, moved from snakes to ripples last season and like the extra thickness for sure.

Can't say I've thought too much about the type of grips I've used.. Currently I've got a lot of diamond grips in the kit bag mixed in with a few chevron grips. Usually its just which ever one I pull out that goes on the bat.
Some wear out quicker than others but they are easy enough to replace and new clean grips always look better. I think some are overthinking this, its a grip.
