If you practice a minute or two a day just gripping down on a 48-inch dowel, that Hand Location quickly becomes very natural. Take your grip with your Left Wrist Flat and the dowel leaning foward and running up nearly the length of your Left Forearm. Then, let your Left Wrist Bend a bit, and see your Hands in the 'holster.'
I have received many an aghast complement upon the 48 inch dowel rod emanating from the inside my inner thigh . . . .
