Flat bottom grips vs. rounded grips?
« on: March 15, 2005, 11:46:27 PM »
All of the balls I bought since 1998 came with the flat bottom grips in the fingerholes.  I've seen a lot of people using just regular round grips, and was wondering what the advantage/disadvantage would be if I switched?
Does the flat bottom of the grip actually impact anything?

To me they affect two things.

One is they move your finger pitches ¼ forward.

Two is feel, I personally like the oval shaped inserts but some like the feel of flat insert.
