    Head Boom MP Alternatives

    I have used a 2022 Boom MP for the past few years and loved it, but it's time to move on to another frame. My only conundrum is that my Boom MP is a grip size 5, and I use it with just a base replacement grip (no overgrips) to maintain the rectangular pallet bevels. I have tried many other...

    TW Private Label Leather Grip vs Head Hydrosorb thickness

    I’m looking into leather grips and many posts on here positively recommend the TW leathers. I have a Head Extreme that is perfect with an over grip - wouldn’t want to reduce the combined size. Anyone know how the TW 1.55mm thickness compares to Head Hydrosorb stock grips?

    Seeking racket restoration/refurbishment help!

    I've decided to start getting my hands dirty with refurbishing super cheap, tired old rackets into something playable, just as a hobby. It's basically an excuse to experiment with replacement grips and sourcing replacement grommets and whatnot, and I also get to learn a lot about obscure, older...

    4 1/8 (#1) Grip Size

    Hi everyone, I recently came unto possession of a Head Speed MP with a 4 1/8" (#1) grip size. It belonged to my sister, who tried to get into tennis last year, but never really took it seriously. However, when I saw it I realized the grip size and was really curious since at least for me it was...

    Small grip size as a crutch/causing bad technique?

    I’ve been using 1/4 grip size for at least 5 years, with the really thin Tourna pro thin grip that probably takes it down another half size. I know it’s too small for my hands (I’m 6 foot tall and have medium sized hands) but I’ve gotten used to it, and seem to have become dependent on it for...

    L5 grip raquets

    Hello, I'm struggling to find raquets with grip size 5 where I live (Switzerland). Theoretically my hand would be size L6 but I gave up searching for that. I've tried to buy L4 and then add heat sleeve or replace base grip with the thickest I've found (Karakal X-Cel Gel) but there are at least...

    Less Spin with 4 1/2 Grip Size

    Hello all, I'm sure this has been asked and answered but I'm just curious about everyone's experience here. I am a 4.0 player and recently switched from a 4 3/8 size racquet to a 4 1/2. I made this change because I started developing some arm pain with my 4 3/8 and read that increasing the grip...

    Hi I might gonna sound noob, but when you buy a racquet and theres different sizes ( 1, 2 ,3 ,4 etc ) Does that mean that the manufacturer makes the grip size bigger with a bigger pallet? or bigger butt cap? or it comes with a thicker overgrip? I really dont understand...

    Does grip size matter?

    hello, I am supposed to have a 4 3/8 grip size but I've been playing with a 4 1/2 for the past 1.5 years unknowingly. Would it benefit me to switch to a 4 3/8?

    Tecnifibre T-Fight RS 300/305 racquets no 4 1/8'' grip size

    @Tecnifibre Official I'm really into the RS 300/305 racquets, but you guys don't make one with 4 1/8'' grip size, any possibility in the future?

    Grip size conundrum

    I have medium sized hands and switched awhile back from 3/8 to 1/4 grip. Seems like I could really whip the racquet better. But lately I feel like I’m struggling to find the right size.

    Wilson Pro Staff grip size

    Hi! Isn't there a Wilson Pro Staff 97 with grip 4 5/8? I just found the RF97 with 4 5/8, but this one is really heavy for me, I prefer the 315 grams version. Where could I find it? Thanks! P.S.: I'm not a big guy, but I like to remove the cushion grip and play with 2 overgrips in a 4 5/8 Wilson...

    Is there a leather grip that can provide feel and a grip size change?

    I have an old Wilson blade 104 I want to try and doctor up, however the grip size is one size too small. I was looking to use a leather grip to add weight, but might as well try to kill two birds with one stone, so is there a leather grip that is thick enough to be comparable to adding a shrink...

    Grip size question
