I'm no pro, but I have a formal education in ergonomics, how the body works, sometimes by virtue of nothing more than human nature, so I agree. While I think everyone could be taught a neutral grip over time, the fact is, most of us are inclined to grip it one way and return the club squarely with that grip. If you took a neutral grip, your natural inclination might be to return to your strong position as you swung and the ball would go exploring.
