Ok, so nets start, I have a new oval handled light bat to stop me slogging and improve timing, which it has. I've altered my bottom hand grip to a light thumb and first 2 fingers. Drives are easier and sweeter as are cuts. My only issue is I now have a semi-permenantly sore and bruised index finger. Anyone else had this? I assume I'll just have to MTFU and the finger will eventually toughen. Or is it the handle?
All thoughts appreciated!!

I hope you're not asking any of us to give you the finger?

I'm saving that pleasure for my doctor! 😬 ☝

Had the same problem, started wrapping the affected bit with some padded tape from boots, sorted!

Without wishing to sound rude as you out it I think it's a case of MTFU

Not sure what gloves you have, but some have padding there.
You will just need to grin and bear it, the pain/bruising will soon pass.

That's what I thought. :D

2016 GM 808 LE's with Slazenger inners. I'll try a little padding but as has been suggested, it's probably just my digits not being used to it. Def going to persevere as batting feels much more natural. I'll post a video as soon as I can figure out the best settings on my SJ5000. Think I need to narrow the viewing angle as everything is always too small at 170°.
