tightness on the wrist!
« on: September 30, 2012, 03:38:30 PM »

bit of a strange one! ive been indoor netting with the bowling machine at the moment and ive started to wear my gloves but not putting the velcro around my wrists and it seems that my wrists are now really free, im just wondering if anyone else has the gloves either super tight or mega loose and what the benefits and negatives could be of doing this?

With the strap flapping around, could have the same effect as bat tape hanging off the side of the blade, making a bigger surface area for the ball to nick off!

I ensure wristband towel does not overlap the velcro as it messes up the sweatband from inner side, although its not visible nor it has any affect but I'm a fussy bugger so I care about little things. So medium I would say

I wear a wrist band under my gloves as I find it more comfortable. with this i don't have to worry about the glove strap.

just have to worry about being out off the wristband...!

I'm happy as long as it's not all loose and flapping around....
