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.
I agree totally. This game is hard enough on it's own. I think too many amateur/hackers like me get caught up in thinking there is only one "right" way to grip/swing the golf club. There are many PGA professionals who deploy some sort of "strong" grip. Azinger, Duval, Zach Johnson, Fred Couples and Boo Weekley all deploy very strong grips.
