Stick grip question: Bare, grip tape, or gloves?


Bare. I've never even really thought about using tape or gloves, although I probably should have back in the day. It would've prevented a lot of nasty blood-blisters...

This. Once open or ruptured, it´s imposible to play.

I taped sensitve, blistering, peeling or crack prone áreas, not each and every digit.

The grip tape I've got on a pair of sticks causes a blister on my 2nd finger, right hand. Think I'll go to a little athletic tape on fingers for some grip. But where? End of thumb? Index finger in the middle? Wrap my whole palm?

Bare. Over time, blisters become hard calluses, and you will never need tape or gloves to prevent blisters, as they will no longer happen.
