Grip check for the Perfect Golf Grip

It has been estimated that 85% of golfers do not grip the club correctly ! You may be one of them.

Check the eight pointers below. They will help you decide whether you have a sound hold of the club or if you need to change your grip.

 
Golf grip tip, the club is not correctly positioned

Grip Pointer 1

If you find your glove wears out here, chances are the club is not correctly positioned in the palm of your hand. The butt end of the club probably covers the wear area. When you swing back and hinge your wrists, the club moves. The movement creates friction which wears out your glove.

Golf tip grip - common problem - no feeling for the club

Grip Pointer 2

If you don't position the club in your hands correctly, you may hold on to the club too tightly. When this happens, you may lose feel for the club, especially the club head.

Golf tip grip - difficult to hinge means a lack of power

Grip Pointer 3

Most golfers with this problem hold the club with their left hand positioned too far to the left of the club. With their left hand in this position, they find it difficult to hinge their wrists. The hingeing and unhingeing of your wrists is a major source of power in your swing. If you put a lot of effort into your swing but lack distance, you are probably not hingeing your wrists.

Golf instruction tip grip - poor hold and club moves at top of backswing

Grip Pointer 4

This is a common problem. The most common cause is a poor hold of the club.

Golf swing tip- grip - without a solid grip - you lose control of the club

Grip Pointer 5

This is another common problem. You cannot control the ball when you do not have control of the club. A solid grip will give you control of the club.

Golf grip tip - a poor grip can cause a flipping motion

Grip Pointer 6

This is a flipping motion, not a golf swing. The ball will not go very far and this action puts a lot of stress on your arms and shoulders. A poor grip is often the cause.

Golf technique tip grip A tight grip causes tension

Grip Pointer 7

Tension in both your hands and arms indicates that the club is not being held correctly.

Golf grip technique tip Hands not positioned correctly can cause slices, hooks, pushes and pulls

Grip Pointer 8

Your hands control the entire club including the club head. If your hands are not positioned correctly in relation to the club you will struggle to return the club squarely to the ball. The result - slices, hooks, pushes and pulls.

Now compare your grip with the two grips shown below.

This is a weak grip.

The golfers' hands are not positioned correctly in relation to the club. If this is the way you grip the club, you probably grip it too tightly and slice or push many of your shots. You may also have a short, quick swing. You may feel that you push the club through the ball rather than swing it through and you don't hit the ball very far. It is an effort to get distance and you know that another 25 yards on your woods and irons would make a huge difference to your game.

This is a strong grip.

The golfers' hands are not positioned correctly in relation to the club. If you grip the club this way you probably grip it too tightly and pull or hook many of your shots though you can also hit a push wide to the right. You may have a lengthy back swing and at times you feel your right hand overpowers your left. Accuracy, not distance, is the main problem you face. If you drove the ball in the fairway and hit you irons with greater accuracy, your game would improve.
