Nice video!! One thing to note is that the grips do have an impact on feel and weight and balance of the stick. Especially if you have selected a certain weight midpoint when buying your stick to suit your game. SEcondly, there is sport science evidence that thicker grips increase the power you get from your hits - not cos of the grip itself but because of the impact on how you hold it and how it plays...however you might sacrifice some dexterity. Thirdly, chamois grips need replacing often - once per season would be a good marker for most. They are designed to give you good grip when your palms sweat and in the wet conditions of a water turf.
Thanks for the interesting information. We would love to see more of the findings with regards to the Thicker Grip study. Could be good information to use when advising our customers
