Is my grip too big or too small?

Grip size
Unsure if the size of your racquet's grip is too big or too small? You should make like the picture to the right! Hold the racquet as you would normally and if you can fit your index finger of the weak hand between the other hand comfortably, touching the tip of your middle finger and bottom of your palm then you are golden. If you can fit one and a half fingers or more then you need a larger grip! The easiest fix is to add an over grip to your racquet which is a cheep fix and also easy to replace when you start to wear it down. You can also increase the racquet grip dimensions but doing so would require purchasing a new racquet! If the grip is too small and you can't fit a finger then you need a smaller grip. From here, if you have an over grip on the racquet, then it needs to come off. If you don't then you need to get a new racquet with a larger grip.
