Yea, I messed around with my right hand grip tonight, and found that out. Im pretty sure im on plane now, it just feels really wierd when i set-up with it, which is to be expected. Thanks
I am not sure exactly what you mean by less in the fingers and more in the cup. Is the cup the palm? If you had a picture of the grip where you held it open with the right hand so only the parts of the hand on the bottom (underside) of the club are showing would they be totally in the fingers like in the 3rd joint near the palm? Would any part of the palm be touching the underside?
Thanks
Dave

The cup is the center line of the hand- the palm, but it doesn't go underneath the shaft.
It folds from pp3 to the center lifeline covering the left thumb instead of running across the whle row of fingers and forming an angle or cocking of the right wrist.
The right hand is a bun and the left thumb and shaft is the Hot Dog.
The grip, or rather the left thumb on the grip ,should run down the lifeline of the right hand-from the #3pp to the crease in the middle of the lifeline near the wrist joint.
Yes thats the way I understand it. I still would say the club is primarilly in the fingers since the lifeline over the thumb is touching the thumb and not the club. all the other parts of the hand that actually touch the grip in the right hand are the fingers is the defintion I use. A SA (natural golf) alignment would have the palm touching the grip.

Correct Davel.
I have to correct my post on the right hand grip. After hitting a few balls in the yard I realized I was conveying a feel. I do have the grip crossing at least my pointer finger (pp3) and my middle finger but when the Right Hand is "Leveled," the 'cup' or lifeline is folded over the thumb and shaft. It is NOT a Single Axis palm grip at all.
