Butt Cap Enlargement (Bulbus) 

For some of us, the stock/manufacturers butt cap is not to our liking. This could be for a number of reasons such as:


Uncomfortable, causes blisters/hard skin, racquet has a tendancy to slip or twist. 


For me, the benefit of an enlarged butt cap, is having a little more at the end, to allow for more 'whip' without holding the racquet too tight.
