How to Grip a Golf Club
You are eagerly flipping the calendar pages until the days when the weather is balmy, and the Country Clubs are open. Well, before you get too excited, we should take a moment to review a couple of things.
First of all, your clubs. Are they the right height? Clubs should come up to your waist. If they are too tall or too short, not only will your game suffer, but you will also not be as comfortable, and your game won't be much fun.
Once you have ascertained that your clubs are the right height, you should now work on your grip. A golf glove may help here by increasing the grip you already have. Not only that, a glove will give you a little bit more comfort as well.
Your grip is your most important tool. No matter what kind of shot you need to make, your grip is going to determine success or failure. A proper grip is very simple. Place your left hand around the club about half an inch down the shaft. Your thumb should run down the club, parallel to the club face. Next take your right hand and wrap it around the club as close to your left hand as you can. Your left thumb should be underneath your middle, ring and pinky fingers.
Once you have your hands in place, remember to let your left thumb guide the club. Do not move your wrists. The tighter your wrists, the better your shot.
Keep your head down, and see you at the 19th hole.
