OB, my handles are very large as I was aspiring to Moe Norman nirvana before TGM reality set in. My larger index finger knuckle is aft (3 o'clock) and the smaller knuckle is at 5 o'clock almost directly underneath the shaft.

Hmm, maybe we are getting our wires crossed. Im talking about the knuckle at the base of the index finger, the one you'd punch with. That is on top of the shaft in Hogans grip. This is the number three pressure point in its swingers, rotated position, the one you load when drag loading. The other #3 pp location is associated with radial acceleration, through impact or for drive loading is the first joint , the crease just below the knuckle of the index finger, which Hogan aligned on the aft of the shaft. One index finger , two lag pressure points , one on top , one on the aft. Both at the ready to sustain the lag and direct it.
