ABSTRACT:
A grip for a tennis racket handle, the grip providing guides for proper gripping techniques and tending to discourage improper gripping techniques. A projection extends from the bottom of the handle to receive the forefinger both to place the forefinger and to provide a trigger for leverage in striking a ball. The side of the handle has a curved ridge, the rearward edge of which defines a thumb recess and the forward edge of which defines a trigger for a backhand grip. A knob rearwardly of the thumb recess defines the rear of the recess without obstructing other gripping techniques. A butt ridge provides a sufficient ridge to give the player a sure grip on the racket. The grip may be symmetrical, so the same grip can be used for both left-hand and right-hand gripping techniques.
