Hi PAtrick,

This depends on the style of game you want to play.  If you want to play a fast close to the table attacking game then the short pimples is better.  If you want to be more defensive, then try the long pimples.

Also take a look at the lesson on the Effects of Rubbers.  This will give you a better insight into what they do.

Let me know what you decide.

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!
