Grip rubber on handle
Equipment
Byron B Asked 15 years ago
Is it ok to use grip rubber on the blade's handle?
I feel more comfortable when playing but it seem it will reduce the speed of ball...
Does the grip rubber will reduce the ball speed? And is there other pros and cons when using grip rubber?

Hi Byron,
Yes that is fine to use. I used to use some for a while to get a better grip on the racket.
It is a matter of feel for yourself. It doesn't effect the performance of the racket much at all. Everyone is different here. If it feels good use it. You can even use an old bicycle tyre and cut a piece to slip over the handle.

Tone is in Your Fingers
There's is an old saying about guitar playing - tone is in your fingers. And If you've ever seen a really good guitarist play an old guitar then you'll understand how true that saying is. I know we go on a lot about this topic but it is so true. Once you've got yourself a decent bat, it's no longer up to the equipment, it's up to YOU!
