Were these the same as that were on the Kookaburra Blade runner? They sat nicely in the hand.

I haven't tried the Kooks. For the grip that I did manage to put on, it squirms around in the hand which I find a bit disconcerting. Also bits tear off from the ribs quite quickly...

These are definitely my favourite kind of bat grip, salix hybrid style.

just swapped a couple of my bats to this type of grip this afternoon to see what they are like, only marginally heavier than a normal chevron and alot lighter than a spiral.

What style of grip is the bottom half of the Salix hybrid grip? It looks slightly different to a spiral.

I need to bulk up the bottom hand on my Salix bat, The oval handle isn't as large as I would generally like it. So what suggestions do people have?

Half a grip??

[ProWannabe88]

Would this aid bottom hand control?? I have a bit of a problem with my bottom hand taking over my top hand. Only when I'm defending. Driving etc is all ok because I'm going at the ball. In defence I close the face. Not a lot but would half a grip under my normal set uo aid the issue??

I would think half a grip. But it was more of a census to see what others use. As in half a spiral, Chevron etc.

Anyone ever weigh their grips? during the excercise of weighing my bats I ended up thowing some grips on the scale to see what the weight was and found...

Chevron (Most H4L have this white Chevron on): 61gm
Salix Hybrid: 43gm
Salix Spiral: 47 gm

So if you are adding grips to make handle thicker as the bottom and weight is a consideration I would almost suggest cutting a spiral in half and hybrid on top...will weigh the rest later tonight and I have a few different kinds

Anyone with any thoughts on these kook grips? always used octopus but these look the goods?

good/bad reviews?

[morgzy10]

nino, look back through this thread, youll see the views,  i had one on my old kooka blade and the grip was an absolut train wreck, it got worn and sticky and just went all over the shop,    after two uses!

[El Nino]

Yeah, was only reviews on other ones similar was hoping the Kook ones might've been a bit better quality. No worries thanks for that I'll steer clear!
