In this video, PGA coach Julian Mellor explains a simple grip concept that can give golfers instant clubface control. If you struggle with slices, hooks, inconsistent ball striking or unpredictable shot direction, the way your hands apply pressure to the club could be the missing piece.
Many golfers focus on swing mechanics but overlook one of the most important fundamentals in golf — how the hands stabilise the clubface. When the grip works correctly, the clubface becomes easier to control, the strike improves and the ball starts on line more consistently.
In this ProperGolfing lesson, Julian demonstrates a simple grip principle based on equal and opposite forces between the hands, helping golfers stabilise the clubface without adding tension.
This small adjustment can immediately improve:
• Clubface control
• Shot direction
• Ball striking consistency
• Confidence through impact
In this video you’ll learn
• How grip pressure affects the clubface
• Why many golfers lose control of the clubface
• A simple grip adjustment that improves stability
• How the hands should work together in the golf swing
• A practical feel that helps control the club through impact
About ProperGolfing
ProperGolfing is a modern golf coaching method developed by PGA coach Julian Mellor. The system focuses on helping golfers improve through natural movement, coordination and balance rather than rigid mechanical swing positions.
The ProperGolfing approach is built around three core principles:
• Free-Flowing Motion – allowing the swing to move naturally without unnecessary restriction
• Coordinated Movement – the arms, body and club working together as one system
• Six-Second Finish – a balanced finish used to confirm rhythm, sequencing and weight transfer
This approach has helped thousands of golfers improve their consistency, strike the ball better and enjoy the game again.
Julian specialises in helping senior golfers and everyday club players who want a simpler, more reliable golf swing.

Julian sounds a small tweak but like all minor adjustments it makes a big difference. Thanks
pete cowens equal opposite complete changed my game, and i was scratch before that change, if that says anything on how this is. Now i feel so confident over the ball, specially with driver where i had huge misses both sides, it really stabilizes the clubhead and increased compression by a lot as well as bonus.
