[Yoda]

Yoda, while you do not mention grip pressure, can you speak to the effect of grip positioning relative to the hitting procedure. I am a hitter by nature, but often struggle when the grip moves out of the fingers and more towards the palm. Did Homer ever speak to this issue, or is it more of a personal preference?

Tball,

For the record, while I didn't present an exhaustive analysis, three of the last four paragraphs of my prior post addressed Grip Pressure.

Regarding your specific question, please answer the following questions:

1. Where is this slippage of the Club occurring -- Left Hand or Right Hand or both?

2. When is it occurring, e.g. at the Top? Release? Impact?

2. What Basic Grip are you using, e.g., 10-1-A (Overlap) or 10-1-D (Interlock)?

3. What Grip Type are you using, e.g. 10-2-B (Strong Single Action), 10-2-D (Strong Double Action), or one of the other five Types.

4. What is your current perceived Grip Pressure, light or tight? Does that pressure change markedly during the Stroke?

5. What is your current skill level, i.e., single-digit handicap, double-digit but below 18, or dreaded 'other.'
