Interesting stuff. I use his J frame grip for all small handguns as I find it gives me superior accuracy and speed.

Fascinating. I want to try his J-frame grip for myself.

His J-frame grip works great... on the range.
Too bad I have about a million more thumbs forward pistol presentations hardwired, and that's what I default too when shooting my J-frame under pressure.
Thumbs forward isn't optimal on the J-frame, but it works well enough to get my hits at a reasonable pace.
Since the J-frame isn't my primary carry gun, I don't consider it a valuable use of range time to hardwire two different grips.

Amen to that.

You can tell he's very very energetic too.

He's almost exhausting to watch. I think he's one of those that defines Work Ethic.

I've talked to Jerry at a couple of different big 3gun matches. He and his wife are some of the nicest "big name" shooters I've met. Country gentleman.

I've found it just plain doesn't work for me with the size of my hands (on the small side). I use a regular thumbs-down revolver grip and do just fine.
