Default Grip Pinch Issue

I finally got strings on my bow, so I'm able to get back into working on my form and trying out my new ST-3. I was given some great instructions on my grip by Rob this weekend, and I was able to get out today and work on doing some blank bale drills, and trying to get a solid anchor point (more on that possibly later...it's a whole other issue). Well I KNOW what I want to do with my grip, and I'm evening doing it right from what what I understand, but I seem to be getting a pinch/blister just below the base of my thumb toward my index finger. It seems as I concentrate on placing the grip in this point and rolling my wrist out a bit, when I draw, the grip must be pivoting a bit where it's resting in my hand, and causing a nice little sore wear spot on my hand. What am I doing wrong? Too much pressure on the riser during the draw cycle? Too much twist in my hand? Am I overthinking the 45 degree to the riser rule and trying to put too much angle in my hand/wrist/forearm?
