DEF

Façon de prendre le bâton qui consiste à tenir celui-ci à pleine main, c'est-à-dire que les dix doigts sont en contact avec le bâton.

CONT

Prise à dix doigts [...] les deux mains posées à côté l'une de l'autre serrent la poignée avec les dix doigts.

CONT

On réfère souvent à la dernière des trois façons que je viens de mentionner comme la prise «prise baseball», «plein main» ou «dix doigts». Je vous avoue qu'elle est très inhabituelle de nos jours. Cette prise était souvent recommandée aux jeunes enfants, aux dames avec de petites mains et aux golfeurs plus matures (seniors) dont les muscles ont un peu amolli avec les années d'expériences passées. Le principe de base voulait que le golfeur encercle mieux le bâton en utilisant la «prise de baseball» et assure, ainsi, plus de force et de stabilité dans son élan.
