I've always done overhand. To me it just feels like a more natural and stronger movement geared more towards the target of the upper back.
Underhand to me feels to me like benching or overhead pressing with an underhand grip would feel. Less powerful and effective.
Just weighing in on the discussion. I'm sure many big backs have been built with overhand and underhand.
And for the record, I was just kidding when I called BtB a pansy. Please don't hurt me big man.
