Seemiller grip
Seemiller grip
The seemiller grip is named after its developer, 5 time U.S. champion Dan Seemiller. This highly unorthodox grip uses one side to hit both backhand and forehand shots. The grip is similar to the shakehands, except that the index finger wraps around the edge of the paddle and the thumb points "forward" to the hitting surface.
Some of the advantages of using the seemiller grip are:
- A superior blocking position
- Chances are more people don't know about this grip as much as they do about the penhold
- The same wide selection of paddles that shakehanders enjoy
