My time is approaching fast too. I fly to Seattle on the 29th. Will be there until March 23rd. Fly home for a week and then fly to Anchorage on April 1st, Adak on April 3rd.
Versa gripps. I gave up worrying about grip years ago. Focus is entirely on the traps. Arthritis in my right wrist and hand doesn't help either...lol
I can hook 470 barehanded for only a couple reps, then grip would be toast!
