Please explain why you do or do not keep the guard on your strap.

Reds

[thecord]

Yes because I can see no reason not to

[The_Bird]

I keep mine on as it helps me 'keep my chin up' when I'm feeling blue.....

[Ayrtek Cricket]

Yeah as its an easier point to anchor too to aid a proper fit

[Simmy]

no cos ive got 5 chins

[Bruce]

Always went under my chin before getting my Ayrtek.
Even tried with out it, but it's an anchor point and helps a correct fit.

[Nickauger]

Yes because I can't be bothered to take it off lol.

[mr_wickets]

I have a standard Masuri and I have taken it off. Rubs a bit and gets a bit sweaty and ming.

[ACM0608]

I have an Albion and took it of, find it more comfortable especially when wicketkeeping.

[Blazer]

No because I see a lot of International players not having them and I haven't still grown out of hero worship  . The first one I take on the helmet , the chin strap is back again.

[dmacwana]

I prefer the feel of the strap under my chin than on it, so take it off. Plus also hinders me when calling or trying to have chat with my batting parter

[Old boy]

I take it off, not comfortable at all no matter which brand I've used. I find helmets hot enough & the guard just seems to add to this.

[wayward_hayward]

I don't use my chin strap. Having a beard and a chin strap is a nightmare 

[fasteddie]

I leave it on, but it's loose.

Wouldn't want my lid falling off and onto the stumps.

[lukemannionzimbabwe]

I keep mine on because once i saw Andrew Symonds being hit in the chin
