Where can I buy Western Grips?

I must sell my RNC since I now work in LE and you know how the RC is not a legal move in that line of work.

Watch out for suspiciously low-priced ones from Argentina...they may be part of the swag stolen from a certain overweight pro. Be very wary if they are stained with powdered sugar!

LOL That's awesome. Great to see this ancient thread surface again. One of the best ever. Oh by the way, If Ronaldo wants to unload his Gogoplata, can I find a buyer for my twister? Will pay top dollar for a decent triangle-armbar combination.

I'm concerned...I'm seriously considering investing in one of these grips but a prominent Tour player who uses one has a nervous tic I don't want to develop. Has anyone out there switching to these begin to suffer from a need to adjust their gluteus Maximus between points and even before second serves??? Could it be an allergic reaction from the material?

LOL and I believe he smells his finger too...as well as fixing every hair on his body. Those western grips must put off some static electricity!

Roddick is selling his old western grips although they appear to be on the semi-western side. Perhaps he can give the buyer a discount since his grips haven't been really useful since 2003.

Sorry, too schwetty! Although, I may be interested in some of the later versions if they can be documented to be installed by Brooklyn!

Taking a page from Bill Tildon. One of the all time great players and a bonafide deviant, with the charming nickname "Stump Finger". All true.

I'm running out of Eastern grips, anyone visiting China soon? Can we set up a group buy and pick up some Eastern grips?

Sorry to say, but Eastern grip are really hard to find these days. Maybe on the bay or ask some old pros like Lendl or Becker if they have any to sell now when they dont use theirs any longer :twisted:

Is there a SouthWestern grip available to aid all those players in the draw Down Under? If so, would it be wrapped in a reverse direction?:)

Thread bump...my Xmas present to all of you appreciating or in need of some humor in the holidays!

I like the semiWestern...hmmm, a synonym for such will be autocensored but I bet they have a few in stock.:twisted:

I have played for a long time w/ Continental Grip. Now my new coach says that I should change it for the Western Grip. I can't find them anywhere so can anyone of you please tell me where can I buy them. Do they sell them in small packages? I don't want to use so much money on them... My coach says that my forehand could work better with Western Grip.

Thanks for answering!

Thank you.. This made my day.

I dropped my western grip a long time ago. Won't get a new one... :p

Thats silly, just re wrapp it but start at the eastern position.

How to save money on your western grip when you finally realize you need a eastern grip.

Was at Indy Wells this week. In addition to balls, they were heaving western grips after each match.

a western grip is not a type of over grip or replacement grip... *****! it is a type of way a racquet is held. all the moronish posters in TW... cruelty!
