If you want to raise the middle of the bat add more grips or heavier ones. I'm not sure how to lower it though... Heavier toe guard or less grips i suppose.

adding grips.. raises the CENTER OF GRAVITY.. which will affect the pick up

but the ore you add the heavier the bat gets

thats why selecting a bat with a good balance is essential

Its obvious that adding more grips would make the bat heavy. But, the reason some players add more grips to the bat is to get more manueverability. Wristy players have more grips on the bat than players who are pre-dominantly bottom handed.
