If I remember correctly, any way round they go is acceptable, all about which hand you control the bat with more.

They're just grips.... I just roll them up and put them on.

They're just grips.... I just roll them up and put them on.

Since the grip is supposed to prevent the bat from slipping in one specific direction (down the hands) only and not the other way (i.e. "slipping" up the hands which generally doesn't happen anyway), there could be one "better" direction than the other..not necessarily for all grip types, but potentially for some.. For e.g., I always observed that for snake/fish scale grips, the 'C' always faces downwards out of the factory/store, meaning that is the supposed direction? But yea, not many would care

More of tongue in cheek comments, it would have been a pattern.

As you said, they are just grips. You can put them anyway!! Reason why I like chevron so much!

Isn't marketing brilliant? 😀

I hand picked them in store in India. Looked at around 30 bats and choose these 2. Great ping and great value.

They are pretty good from what I have heard.

A few decent sticks amongst this lot. The stand out performers are the two Rob Packs with the white grips, they are ridiculously good bats. The Warsop is an absolute cracker as well. Honourable mentions to the B3 and Aldred butterfly.

@Turn Of Pace nice collection mate! Especially your warsop and b3 look like stunner. What are their specs?

Thanks mate. The Warsop weighs 2.10 and is a custom made shape based on a GN Predator with a long handle. The B3 was bought from @bk on here last year and is a terrific bat. It's a three stripe DB2 weighing 2.10 and has the best pick up out of all of the bats.
