Grip/Stick 'Um or non-grip

[flyers10 57]

Just wondering what most people prefer. I had a XXV stick 'um but now I think I prefer my new One95 non-grip. Not sure what to get for a new X60 or One95.

I really do NOT like the Stick'um stuff at all. I got rid of my Vapor XXVs because of it.

I DO like the tactile texture that Bauer has.

I prefer non-grip, but shafts with the tactile material are fine.

I love Easton's non grip, which is similar to Bauer's textured grip. I've gotten better with putting up with grip, but I still don't like it as much as non grip.

I prefer non-stick(um)

I love my one95 tactile corners. Feels as good as my one90 (just broke :( ) but doesn't chip as easily since it's not everywhere. It's perfect IMO.

Definitely non-grip.

Bauer's smooth shafts (without tactile) tend to be a little slick, but I like it during games as I can quickly draw my hand down the shaft to snap off shots. I find Easton's older shafts to be perfect since the kevlar gave them a little texture.

I usually prefer non-grip sticks, but with my XXX's the palms make my sticks way to slippery so I have to rub tape on them. I'd say 95% of my sticks are non grip and Ill probably continue to go that route for awhile.

I absolutely need grip. Favourite grip is the nipple grip, followed by tactile stick'um, then everything else is kinda the same.

hate grip, perfect for me would be tactile on the corners

oh ye love the velvet feel though (thanks skoda :P)

I like grip. My favorite was the TPS Rubber, don't mind Stick 'Um or Nipple Grip. I'd like to try the Velvet feel on the new AK-27, but the Mrs has severely reduced the hockey budget.

I had a One90 that was way too slippery, I know it didn't have stick um, but I don't recall if they had the tactile grip on those, or that one.

if i'm using gloves with clarino palms, grip shaft is essential. anything else, i like clear coat.

I prefer non-grip sticks; especially the SE16 and the Supreme One95.

I HATE Stick'um now that I've used the One95 with Tactile. I also like to apply my own light grip in key areas with a reversed tape roll.

I usually go with a candy cane tape job on the shaft if that counts.

Was a grip man but love the tactile on the One95 the best so far. Worst grip was a TPS rubber shaft I had back in the day. Was a fan of the Easton Synergy Grip days

don't like the stick'um, but i love the nipple grip from Warrior. Some will say there is no difference but there definately is.

I'm a grip guy...had it on a Dolomite and can't go back. I like a grip with a little texture and a little stickiness to it.

I HATE grip! I NEED a candy cane tape job though. The rubbery texture on grip sticks just feels so wierd
