Damn, some of these guys have some small hands!
How does a guy who is 6'3" end up with 9 inch hands... that's like gnome sized. |

With the other measure I'm a paltry 8" dead on. |

I'm 9.75 by that version. |

And now your size measures start to make a ton more sense to me. Your span is probably close to 10" EDIT: ah I see now that yours are 9.75" That makes a ton more sense. I knew my hands weren't freakishly big! |
Yeah, hand span makes a lot more sense as a functional measurement.
Aside: I have a friend who has some of the largest hands I've ever seen; it's like he has a bunch of bananas attached to his wrist. He's 6'3 but he wears size 9 tennis shoes. |

Based on my experiences on throwing a football, I can see how large hands could help a lot in spinning it. |
ok now that we resolved that... doesn't it seem like some of these QBs have freakish gnome hands? 9.08" WTF?
|
I don't even feel comfortable throwing a football with my hands. I never feel like I can get on top of it. Can't imagine with hands almost an inch smaller.
|
Damn, I had never measured my hand before. I'm 6-3 and have 10 1/3" hands.
I can spin it, too. Edit: 8 1/2" from wrist to tip of middle finger. |
