Great work. I'm about to plug a ring finger on a 20 year old Storm El Nino just to try this. My ring finger has lost strength and right side of my hand and I think this grip will relax my ring, and theory is I will be more behind the ball without turning too early and hopefully will increase loss of speed. If this doesn't work then I may go full blown conventional.
I'm possibly changing to Sarge Easter right after quarantine ends. Just noticed you use extreme reverse pitch on the ring finger. Is it important? 3/4 seems like a ton but probably necessary to get a clean release on the ball (considering you already use some forward pitch on the thumb).
Very necessary to use reverse pitch in the ring finger. For shorter spans you don’t need as much, but should never be any less than 1/4 reverse. The other important thing is not to make the bridge cut lines too wide. 3/16” optimal, 1/4” max in conjunction with at least 1/2” right for right handers.
@@brunsnick that's unfortunate. I was hoping perhaps one of the gripping holes could be drilled deeper to bring the offset back within the new spec. Your older videos helped me discover that layout and it's been a great one for me to use over the years. RIP indeed. Gone But Not Forgotten 😭

I thought about that grip because I was thinking it might give me more control but I see you did it for less strain on your ring finger. I have heard that you get less rotation but you look like you get plenty rotation. What do you think Nick
