@IanJamesPoulter    I use a staggered taping under my grips I have 3 layers under my left hand and 5 layers under the right. Feels more comfortable.

@IanJamesPoulter    I use a 58 reminder grip, tour velvet. I have it on a couple of MM's closed so it fits snug in my fingers.

@IanJamesPoulter    I do the gripping that way because I have big hands & My right hand is same size as left so why shouldnt the right hand be thickened up.
