Grip width for High Pin Press to best hit Tris?

[FatRat]

Is a normal flat bench grip width effective for hitting tris on a high pin press since you are mainly using tris with this ROM, or is it better to bring the hands in to more of a Close Grip bench position?

Thanks

Index finger where the smooth and textured divide, for me.

Just play with it...you'll feel it when it's right.

So more of a close grip for you? Thanks

Oh yeah, close grip = more tricep concentration.

i personally do board presses with a similar grip to whatever event i am gonna do in my next contest/ viking/log/thick bar(have not done that one yet)

i also put my index fingers where the knurling and smooth meet... if you do this your elbows should almost be touching your lats to make a straight pressing line
