I also hold mine like Earl, though I get my hand higher up on the backstrap by a little bit.
Thats also similar to how I hold a semi auto, which I don’t shoot as often. I know that’s not the preferred grip for a semi auto but I also don’t want to accidentally grab a revolver with an aggressive thumbs forward grip and have my thumb injured because I’ve left it hanging out past the b/c gap. The downside is that I don’t control the recoil as well as those that use the thumbs forward grip on an auto.
This is the way I do it. It wasn't taught to me it's just something I developed shooting hard kicking revolvers. It provides for a good solid hold that will keep your thumb out of harm's way.
