i have a "rather high" backswing i use 0 side to side and 1/16th reverse. Vise thumb mold with tape in that, then add more to it after i put it in. Depends on how flexable the hand is more than the hight of the backswing. Only thing I could stay is to not go too much reverse to where you'd have to squeeze to hold on to the ball on the down swing.

Thanks Carl and Eric,
I totally understand the concept of hand flexibility. I have a lot of flexibility and a double jointed thumb so I need less reverse than most. I do think that the height of the backswing and hand flexibility has to be taken into account when trying to figure out grip pressure.

I have been using 1/8 reverse. I just like to get ideas from people of like styles and ability for comparison. I'm going with 0 and 1/8 left to try to hold on to the ball and lessen grip pressure.

Thanks for your comments.
