i really like yonex super grap, but i think it's causing blisters on my hands everytime i play. i'm guessing that super grap is too tacky for my hands.
can anyone recommend an overgrip that is less tacky than super grap? or if you have had blister problems because of your overgrip, what did you switch to? thanks! |

Try Tourna Grip, I have not had blister problems, and I've used the grip for well over 5 years.

Tourna grip is soft, probably won't give you blisters like smashlob says. But for me it lasts only about a set so I really don't think it's worth it. I love Yonex too, my favorite and I've tried a lot of overgrips. You do get blisters only once it starts to tear. I suggest you try Pacific Xtac overgrip.

Tourna last me about a set... I like using Wilson Pro... Im not sure... I have blisters but it hurts only sometimes... the Pro is great havent used anything but it for a year now... Tourna doesnt hurt my blisters and is really soft... I think if you dont want blisters go for Tourna but I say Wilson Pro is better... more durable and all... about a week for me... sometimes 2 if im lucky

thanks for the suggestions. i picked up some tournagrip and i'm hoping it works out. durability/price isn't a concern for me (yet) as long as i can be blister-free

i have been using the wilson pro overgrip for over a year now, and the only time i remotely get blisters is when i stay on the courts for hours on end.....alot of it has to do with how tightly you like to hold your racquet as well

You're getting blisters because your skin is unaccustomed. Once that blister goes away you'll have a calice and you won't get another blister on the same spot. Feel free to keep using your Yonex overgrip.

wilson pro, very similar to super grap, but not as tacky. tourna is also nice, but durability is very low.
