I tried practicing on a surface with little or no rebound... Singles and Doubles are what I did.... I don't know if this is a good idea or not but, I used heavier sticks just to build up my wrist.... Remember, START SLOW!! ;)

This exercises helped me when doing the Traditional Grip... It also gave me better control!! :-\ ::)

*Ellaborating* Please be aware that practicing tradish and matched works 2 different muscle groups. Don't practice one grip to improve the other ;)

And before j_kay comes and rears his head from the depths of grammatical correctness, I know "elaborating" only has one "L".  :P

That's an important point.

If you read what I said, I said I felt like It helped ME not saying that he should try it!! :-\ That is why I put this :-\ Next to it!! I know there two different things, Im not a walkin Dunce Cap ?/? ;) Maybe I should have cleared It up a little more... I was simply talking about the heavier sticks not the exercise itself dude!! It helped ME adapt to playing with heavier sticks in both grips ;D ;)
