Gripping with no finger on rubber
Match Strategy
Torin Zieboll Asked 7 years ago
As said, I know a guy who just holds/grips the bat in his hand with no finger on the rubber, I lose to him but I'm sure it's just because he is more skilled then me, is there any tactic I can use which will be effective in beating him?

Hi Torin,
It is important to see the actual game of that player and analyse his strengths and weaknesses.
The weakness of his gripes that he may have less control of the racket and not have as god a feel for the angle of his bat but it is not something that you can necessarily exploit with tactics.

It's called the "hammer" grip. It isn't used at the top levels because it has little control. So, you could face a lot of wild shots.

thanks to both of you. That has helped me a lot ????

I'm sure the difference in control would be very marginal after years of training..
