Well, I finally have my first class schedules for the 3rd and I couldn't be happier. Talking with a buddy (he's going too) I mentioned one of the things I really wanted help with was grip because I do not have a grip that I feel is correct. He told me to check out a video on grip from Travis Hayley (https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=tMzQIHN-LiI)
So I watched it, a few times. And now I have come to the best forum on the planet for help. In this video he talks about using your support hand to make the grip 100%. He grips the gun with his right hand and then uses his support hand to fill the void of the grip with his left. My problem is that if I center the beaver tail right in the "pocket" between my thumb and index finger, my fingers curl around the grip a good ways leaving not
Much room to get my support hand on the grip for added support, and when i do get it finangled in toiching the grip it feels "awkward". Does it feel this way just because I've shot so many rounds the wrong way? Or is this not right? I have the small panels (back and sides) on the VP9 because it just feels right. My thinking is if I were to install the large back strap I would have more room for my support hand to go, but the large back strap just doesn't feel..right.
Do I have the beaver tail too far towards the thumb making my fingers wrap around the grip more?
I don't have crazy big hands. There nice and thick and rough but I don't have above average size so I know this is operator error. I'm gonna try and get some pictures uploaded. The first pic is how I normally have the weapon centered into by hand, second picture is showing how much finger wrap around I have, which doesn't look like much but between the finger tips and Palm its a tight fit for the support hand.
