I've found that setting up the grip by putting the right hand on first, in it's impact fix position with right forearm on-plane, bend wrist, pp#1 and #3 in line and on-plane, makes fitting in the left thumb real easy. Just put it right under pp#1 (under the lifeline of the right hand). Works for me.
I'm hitting these days, so I never go to adjusted address, just takes it back from impact fix.
When Yoda make an adjustment to me (in total) I discovered that for me to get the left thumb consistently on the aft side, placing the right hand was the trick for me, much like Thom described.
Also it helped remind me to get the right thumb over and around the shaft as well, something for some reason I still continue to want and let it ride more to the top..
Argh those thumbs... Isn't that something that, the thumbs, that make use different from other animals? And this was a good thing?
Okay, guys--club in hand. Now, as I look down at my grip, my left thumb is ever so slightly right of center, comfortably against the lifeline of my right palm. Is this "aft" enough for the left thumb?

If the 'top' of the grip is noon, and the 'side' is 3, you want about 2:15-2:30.
Think 'on plane', down plane, a tilted plane - support of impact.
