What is so great about using an overgrip?

Overgrips absorb

Overgrips fit over existing handle grips (and thus increase the grip size a bit) and absorb the sweat better. Some overgrips are "tacky" or sticky. Some are even essentially gauze with tape and some sticky powder. They should be replaced about every five times of playing or sooner. Otherwise, they get a little sticky. Some overgrips feel rubbery, others cloth like, others a bit powdery.
