Which Grip is Better? Thick or Thin Grip.
Is thin grip better
or
thick grip better
in badminton
let's say
thin grip
like that yeah
very tight
please focus on the gap
between my palm and end of the finger
don't worry about where I grip
high or low
that is not the point at this moment
let's say this much thin
so your end of fingers
may touch your palm area
because it is very thin
now
thick grip
after you grip
there is big gap between
your end of fingers and to your palm
big gap like that
which grip is better?
my answer is
too thin grip is not good
you will loose power
because inside your hands
not much to grip
if you have power 10 in your hands
may be only power 5 can be used
if you grip too thin
racket
if you grip too thick like that
after grip too much gap left
because it is thick
you might loose control
because it is too thick
your finger cannot feel much details
my answer is
a right size of the racket grip is the best
then question
how do I know what is my right size of grip
it is difficult to say because everybody is bit different
some players feel comfortable
having little bit thinner grip
because they have been using
that kind of grip
some like to grip little bit thicker
because they feel more power
when they grip thicker grips
so it is difficult for me
this is right grip for you
the only one thing I can suggest
only if you liked grip
the way I grip
if you liked the grip the size
the one I liked grip then you may try
okay so this is your hand
this is you grip vertically
this is you grip horizontally
please grip the racket 45 degrees
like that
after you grip 45 degrees
if you put your small finger (pinky finger)
between the gap
I like this size of grip
for my hand
but if you would like to try
the way I like to grip the racket
the size of grip
then please you can try that way
I feel
after you grip 45 degrees this way
not like that
because then it will touch
I believe this way of grip is the right way to grip it
if you grip like that
your grip will be like this
which is wrong grip
if you grip horizontally
your second finger has to be stretched
which is not the right grip
if you grip 45 degrees
then automatically your grip
will be very close to the right way
like that
and then the gap
is big enough to your small finger filled in
then I feel this is right grip for me
this size of grip for me
very good
to use my power
still I have control
and still easy to change grip
but if you haven't found the right size
of racket grip then please try
the way I suggest to you
I hope you like that
