Hi Rahul,

You are allowed to use any grip you like however the grips that we show you in our Get a Grip lesson are the two most recommended ways.

The method you talk about will have limitations on using your wrist effectively in your shots.

Having a great short push can be the difference between being an average player and being a great player. Make sure you allocate the appropriate amount of practice to mastering the push.
