>>> Jack, in a recent post you say we should barely grip the bat so that the hands slide (or slip?) around the bat. How in heaven's name do U do that without the bat flying out of your hands? <<<

Hi Maximum

The grip of the bottom hand is what holds on to the bat. The top hand should have a loose grip and the hand can even come off the bat after contact.
