Re: small hands
Although I have very small hands I was taught at an early age to use the overlapping grip because it is the "correct" grip, and have used it for over 30 years so it is too late to change, even though another grip (e.g., interlocking) might have been more appropriate. The problem is, because of small hands, I have difficulty getting my right hand heel pad over my left thumb without making the right hand grip too strong (V pointing right of my right ear). To weaken the RH grip I find I have to move the entire right hand farther down the club, which feels awkward and leads to disconnection of the hands. So should I just stick with the very strong RH grip, which feels most comfortable?
