I've never tried it and can't comment directly but it sounds like a great idea.

Anyway, I prefer a textured frontstrap and haven't noticed it hindering my draw. Of the patterns I've tried I like 30 LPI the best. I'd like to try that EB treatment to see how it feels, though.
I'm going to a dealer on Friday who is a friend of the Ed Brown family, I'm gonna ask him to call them and get us a clear answer. Never heard of this, am wondering if it is accurate.

The old "push/pull" eh??? No wonder you work on a college campus! Nah, this is about the drawstroke grip w speed. Getting to the push/pull fast with your own grips in the right place.
