Holding the bat

Strokes

Vaidotas Dambrauskas Asked 13 years ago

Are there any big differences with different bat holding techniques?

Alois Rosario Answered 13 years ago

Hi Vaidotas,

The main difference is that the shakehand grip allows an easier backhand and the penhold grip allows more use of the wrist and therefore more spin.

BOth grips allow you to reach the very highest level.
