I find grip sizes a bit dodgy, I'm not quite sure that what I have now is right for me. Also I wonder if those grip size finding methods take into consideration the use of overgrips.

I prefer to play with a size smaller than I should - so I can alter my grip for extreme topspin and slice etc etc. I'll need to play you in the summer Mark, where's your nearest courts?

I'm not a member of any club yet but when I move to Ealing Broadway I might end up joining the local club there.

Surely there's some courts nearby though for other recreational players?

This is London and if there are then they will almost certainly be occupied for when we would want them.

Why cant you do this on the correct grip size?

I find it easier to change when it's a smaller grip. I can do it, because my old racquet was the correct grip size for my hands, but in my experience, I prefer playing with a grip which is a size smaller.
Are you still using the iRadical Chris?
