Put the index finger on the other side of a penhold grip

Strokes

Anh Chung Asked 12 years ago

Well, Im used to the penhold grip but instead of placing the index finger on the normal side, I put it the other side. And I find it easier when playing backhand counter hit, are there any problems ?

Hi Anh,

If it feels comfortable for you it might be OK, but you may lose control of the racket head with that grip.
