Neutral grip

Mike,

I have never heard that the right hand grip is in the palm? Your not talking about a Moe Norman like grip are you? Please explain some more.

No- not like Moe. The left hand must form an angle for the number three accumulator. The right hand and wrist never cocks so no angle is needed. This places the right hand Level on the grip.

Although my index, middle and ring finger are place under the shaft, my hand 'Levels' as it folds the lifeline over the left thumb. A Level Right Hand.

So when you said too much in the fingers you were refering to a right hand grip that had the right wrist cocked?

I don't know where I said "too much in the fingers" but YES the right wrist cannot be cocked or have an angle pre set in it.

I don't think LEVEL is emphasized enough. Yes, it is Bent, but without Level- you are off Plane- Period.

How about the Left Thumb? Is it placed in a different locatoin for swinging than for hitting.

I read where yoda said that there should be space between the index finger and the thumb, but he was talking about hitting.

Does the swinger want that space? I would think they would.
