What's your favorite grip enhancer?

Apologies if this doesn't count as "gear" but I figured it's something you can buy. I know a lot of shooters use pro grip but I think it's expensive for what you get and I don't order from websites that have it very often. Very shortly I'm going to be playing around with chalk balls and powdered chalk to see what I like the most. Curious what others here like to use.

I used Pro Grip many years ago and have since switched to chalk. 

 

I once had a starting position of " Hands on top of head with fingers interlaced" at a major and found out the hard way that Pro Grip makes it difficult to separate hands/fingers.  I did lose some time and threw my stage timing off.

I really like Mueller Magic Grip Spray.  Its not cheap but it does not take much. Not tacky at all, dries quick to a fine chalky layer. Doesn't get all over everything as bad as heavier stuff. Lasts 2-4 stages depending on how hot it is and how much I am sweating or touching things.

I just wanna post a small update, I’ve gotten some chalk balls from the brand spider chalk and I like them a good bit. Felt great in dry fire. It doesn’t leave your hands aggressively grippy like I’ve felt pro grip does but makes them nice and dry

I use the least expensive liquid chalk I can find.  It's good for shooting, and workouts.


recently tried some ‘offbrand’ from Amazon, I’m not sure it’s any better/worse than pro grip. Seems to be just fine.

I've started using Iron American after seeing a few guys try it and like it. Its cheap and works well. Comes in white which is similar to Pro grip and then they have a pink version which I guess smells like strawberries lol.
