I use a BH dominant grip, the blade shoulder rests on my index finger "big knuckle".
When I play FH, during swing back, my index and middle fingers are rigid to form a "frame" to hold the racket in position and keep the racket angle stable. As a result my forearm is also quite stiff. There's a gap between my thumb and the rubber. My index finger is curled with the finger tip resting on the rubber.
When I swing forward, my index finger and thumb contract to create a "snap". My ring and little finger are relatively relaxed, with my palm remains hollow during the stroke.
Does this resonate with your grip? Does it violate any basic principles? Comments please.
