    I had a box grip up until sophomore year in high school. Had my high school coach teach me the door knocking grip. Felt weird for awhile but once I got use to it I loved it. Been hitting that way for baseball/softball for the last 20 years.

    This is all true because I use the box grip which causes me to role my wrists and not get in to a solid extension. I’m 13 and I thought the door knocking knuckles was uncomfortable.

    Second knuckle or as you said door knocking knuckles is what I have taught and was shown, I understand your frustration with having your back elbow up with the second knuckles lined up it does feel like you almost have to push the barrel down to be more comfortable.I have taught back elbow down in an upside down V position from elbow to elbow pushing the hands back slightly almost a pre load position with knob to the catcher.This allows you to slot your back elbow in earlier keeping your bat on plain with the ball.Personally I do not like the box position with the hands as your timing must be perfect and you tend as you said to roll over earlier.The bat sitting in the second knuckle position on both hands is a much stronger position in your hands. Great video.

    I know players that hang their pinky off the knob with bottom hand, and pinky of top hand on bottom hand,? It is said to create more whip, Also what about aids for grip? Like the one that goes on the top thumb and a half ball sits inside the area between thumb and index finger it forces you to keep bat in fingers, Another one is what about triggers or a grooved pistol like knob cover? Do these help at all? I have hit 2 balls off the fence already 3 games in this year just from watching you. Thanks, I lack that last 15-20 feet

    Alll kids should start with knocking knuckles. As they get older the knuckles un-align. Similar to squashing a bug then going to pivot. Any kid who can hit consistently with the box grip should be allowed to do so. But it all has to start with the knocking knuckles.

    The box grip is the only grip to hold a bat with the bottom hand rigid, tight. As you load the top hand pivots to a more door knocking grip, as you swing the grip goes back to a box grip until part way through the top rotates to a door knocking grip as they palms are opposite up and down. A box grip is a natural grip when holding the bat stationary.

    I've done it for a while. I've noticed that I feel less power out of it, but the box totally restricts the flow of my bat. One thing you gotta realize, our bodies are all a little different. Our swings shouldn't be the same, but I think he nailed it onthe grip. Halfway in between works for me too.
