This is probably the most thorough, in-depth discussion of the grip I have ever seen. And I have been playing the game for over 64 years.
Glad you are seeing the purpose of the grip Art! Did you get any Ah Ha moments on it?
Keep coming back to the grip videos. Seems like this can be the number one thing to derail all my hard work. If I’m not diligent with my trail hand, it discombobulates everything. I’ll keep practicing with a club in my spare time until it becomes natural.
Till the cows come home! 👍👍😀
Just watched grip videos 1 and 2. Your examples and explanations are clear and concise. I have a lot of time here at home now and I’m gonna work on all of my fundamentals so when I return to the course, there will be no boogeyman or should I say Bogeyman sneaking into my golf game:p
Awesome Davian! Thank you for the terrific feedback!
How do you choose the right size grip? Is this just personal preference?
Super question and an important one! Time to do another little youtube video on that!!
Answer: go to a golf store and hold different size grips in your lead hand the way we show you in this video. Which size do you feel you can crush the most or hold the tightest? That is the one you want!
Then choose material you prefer the feel of.
Thanks Shawn. Have you already got a video on YouTube on this? I couldn’t find one. In the process of regripping at the moment so any more info would be helpful 😁
See an oldie but goodie called “grip and Wrist hinge shawn clement” and in the second half of the video, we talk about it.
Perfect. Thank you.
Hi Shawn, I’m a righty golfer and I try to mirror your grip to a T but struggle with the right thumb placement. I knife the grip like you but at the top I feel tremendous strain. It might be because I cup my left wrist and the weight of the club moves to a position in between my thumb and index finger. When doing perpetual motion drill my thumb tends to slide on top of grip. Any advice?
Thanks,
Tom
Are both snuff boxes hinging together?
Shawn
Yes both snuff boxes are hinging together. I want to clarify the strain is only on my right thumb at the top of my swing. I know you said at the top the club should be resting on your index finger but when I hinge to the top the club seems to gravitate towards my right thumb Because of my left wrist cupping.
There is your culprit!
