Grip Positioning

Recommended Posts

I play a neutral grip, maybe slightly strong, but I notice the one thing that shakes my game is my left hand grip. When that does not feel comfortable, everything else suffers.

When I setup my grip, I try to be very specific about the placement in my fingers.

Try and follow me here... when I setup, for my bottom three fingers, I have the bottom of the grip in between the knuckle and first joints of those fingers, and the index finger in right below where the first joint is.

Can you guys post where the grip bottom( I mean the bottom, as in part that is facing the ground, the lowest point) is sitting in your left hand fingers? Thanks guys.. :D

Huh? Sorry, this is a little tough to understand what you mean. I think it needs to be very, very clear and specific... like which hand, which fingers of which hand.... Are you talking about the grip or the grip of the club... Like that.

Not sure if I am answering your question correctly, but from your description, it sounds like your left hand grip might be too much in the palm of your hand.

Any time I'm struggling with grip issues, I find my self going back to Hogan's timeless classic - "Five Lessons: The Modern Fundamentals of Golf" He really details the way the club should lay in your hands...I would highly reccommend it.

Hope this helps.
