Most drummers deal with sweaty hands. For me it's the opposite: My hands are really dry & smooth.
With this, I find grip impossible unless I hold on tight, and that causes muscle fatigue.
I've tried Gorilla Snot (so sticky it tears my hands up), grip tape (making the stick handle too thick) as well as a rosin bag (white powder everywhere).
Vic Firth and Zildjian make a rubber gripped sticks, but both of these are expensive.
Any of you out there found a trick that might help? I'm sort of at wits end here.
