Since changing my grip, my hands seem to move and change position at the top of the backswing.
My ball striking is better when it doesn’t change but it kills the power and accuracy when it does.
Anyone had this issue themselves and have any ideas how to stop it?

Go and see martin and explain, esp if it was him that recommmened the grip change.
 
I know what you mean. My hands and wrists are small. I have to try hard to keep hold at the top.
I've noticed many good golfers have biggish hands and strong wrists.
Then again, these small Korean ladies( who seem to hit it a mile ), knock that theory down?😊
And Monty says hold the club like you're holding a bird.!
Dunno!
 
You may be over swinging so to take the pressure of your wrist you loosen your fingers.
I have shortened my backswing a bit and this stopped and my ball striking has got better.
 
Could it just be a glove issue? With too old gloves I lose club face control and I slice with an open club face as the shaft can twist more.
