He said NOT to ROTATE ...because the Right Wrist may move toward an Arched condition..which destroys the alignment of the RFFW....DO Not Rotate..also means the Left Wrist..So many who do not know try to rotate the left thumb to the Aft location rather than "abducting it from the forefinger to lower it by itself to the aft alignment...YOU see those cats and dogs who try to keep a coin between the left thumb and left forefinger can keep the coin in when executed per Homer's procedure...those who can keep the coin in are probably rotating it!

Do you think a larger grip size is beneficial for getting this aft thumb position properly?

For example, if I use PING's grip size recommendation for my hand, they suggest the standard size, however I actually think the midsize + a wrap, or their oversize fits my hands better when using a 10-2-B grip. I should note that even by the 'conventional' standard, (tips of left hand fingers just touching the thumb pad), their standard size is too small for my hands as far as I see it.

That said, I think a thinner grip is useful if using 10-2-A/double wrist cock, per Hogan.
