Hey Shawn. I can’t get that big separation from my right index finger. They want to wrap around close to the other fingers no matter how hard I try. I think this might cause looseness in my backswing and especially when i do the continuous swing motion drill i loose it like 4 swings in.
It happens! It took me about 3 weeks to get my left handed trigger finger properly stretched out for this; definitely possible as you work on this! Keep at it!
What’s a exercise i can do to help correct this?
Hold a golf ball like I hold the clementine in the “best video on grip ever shawn clement” on youtube video; practice stretching that index knuckle back.
I’m unlearning holding the club like a bird. To unlearn this, I found throwing the club helpful, and watching this video, + The Grip video, a bunch of times throughout my journey. Slight improvements/adjustments every time.
My poor bird is purée! 😝😝
You mentioned midway in video a stretch or excersize for trailing hand pointer finger but I did see it. Is that in a later video?
Darn it! Really? Sometimes I go on a tangent and can’t find the breadcrumbs back…🙄
You saw the kitchen knife correct? You saw the way we hold a golf ball when you want to throw it? So with the use of the knife in mind, place the face of the club towards the ground, (use any iron) and take the index finger of the trail hand and push the face into the ground; feeling that stretch in the knuckle of the index; or do the doorframe drill like in the “hammer drill” video and apply the same pressure against a ball against a door frame to stretch it. Make sure you also see “important grip update” video
Hello Shawn,
I worked on my trail hand today at the driving range. My index finger position felt a little weird even though I was having good shots. Any tips to make it feel a little bit more comfortable ?
Here’s a screenshot of my current grip.
Thank you sir!
That is not bad! It will eventually stretch some more and hook on more prominently!
