Sweating hands?

I sweat a lot, my hands sweat a lot when I play tennis.


If your hand is wet from sweating you don't have control anymore over your racket. It turns around in your hand.





What to do?

Sweating hands?
don't use a glove. you'll get laughed at. thats for racquetball. it won't help anyway. you can try the chalk...i'd just bring my towel with me (like the pros) and towel your hands off in between points. toweling yourself off in between points will also give you a nice breather/chance to get your thoughts together.
Reply:chalk bag I use one for rock climbing. I'm sure you could come up with a small one that you could tack on to your skirt. just dust your hands when you get a chance.
Reply:wear grip gloves.
Reply:Get Sweat Absorbing Overgrip.
Reply:Can't Kill Time is right. A chalk bag will work wonders. It works for pool, and bowling. It's bound to work for your tennis racket.
Reply:1. Get overgrip


2. Wear sweatbands, because much of the sweat isn't from your palms, but sweat that drips down from your arms.


3. Get some kind of gel drying agent for hands. Prince makes some and there is one called DRY STUFF that you can find ont the internet. It is the best I have used.


4. Towel off constantly.





Personally I wouldn't use a glove because you don't feel the racquet as well. But to each his own.
Reply:botox your hands to kill of your sweat glands
Reply:it sounds pretty bad. you can actually have an operation to make them normal.
Reply:Sawdust works very well. Ivan Lendl and Michael Jordan used it before every match/game to avoid getting sweaty hands and it obviously worked well for them. Also, there are non-sweat grips you can buy that stay sticky even when your hand gets wet. In fact, the wetter they get, the stickier they become. Just go down to your local tennis pro shop and they should have a selection to choose from.
