Bat Grip Database
« on: November 11, 2012, 07:35:14 PM »

I always get confused by the choice of bat grips, so I thought a thread with pics and some observations might be helpful for forum members:-

Chevron - thin grip, reasonable level of grip



Octopus - thickish grip, high level of grip but tends to wear out gloves



etc - anybody want to add some more?

Best grips I've used are 1/2 chevron - 1/2 spiral, don't seem to be many of them about though.

I also once had some fantastic grips in soft, flexi rubber with massive, heavy spirals on them, haven't seen them in ages though.
