basically, it is the style of hitting that Ty Cobb advocated.

Search the hitting threads I believe there was a thread on 'split grip'.
It helps to learn the 'turn the barrel towards the ball'. Helps to understand what both hands have to do in a good swing.
Pretty sure 'punching' your top hand through isn't what you want. JMHO.
Thanks for posting the links to the older threads!Here is a couple threads about SplitGrip. My DD tried the trend... never looked back.

That's great that it works for her!
I ordered a $7 bat knob taper for my DD's Xeno to see if the Overlap Grip/UL-L plit grip works for her, as it does for me. If not...oh well...
I've been hitting balls off and on all day long, with those grips and it's weird how well you can control the bat head with that split grip.
It literally never crossed my mind to try the split grip, until I saw UL-L use it.
