ISSF rules

Hello

Is it legal/permitted to use "pro Grip" in ISSF style pistol shooting?

"Pro Grip" is a gel that prevents sweat in the hand. It simply dries the hand out.

I think it is legal i IPSC shooting.


Thanks

the New guy

I certainly cannot think of anything to stop you.

Shooters have been using anti-perspirant for years.

Might want to look at pitcher's rosin (from baseball) and/or sure-grip (a spray).

Just make sure you don't use the anti-perspirant "Lynx for men" just before you shoot , or you'll never be able to concentrate , as you'll have women swarming all over you.

Well , that's what their commercials reckon !

I think it's called "Axe for men" in the USA.

Hello

Thank you for the input.

I will continue to use my "gel", but I think I'll stay clear of the "lynx" product, don't want all that distraction at the range....

shoot well
