hmmm…every great golfer and trainer says the grip is really important…i just started playing, i wonder if i should take haney's tip or yours….i'm taking your tip!!! hank who!?
@SHANEB731 I'm just coming into to single digit handicap. I was mid to high teens last year, even though I broke 80 for the first time (at the end of the season). The grip tip I got from Hank, simplly by relating a story of one of the first things he told Tiger to change. Move the top of the club a bit more into the palm. You have more control and more powerful strikes. I hit the ball tour length and my consistency is rounding right now. Can't wait till I get my scratch card.
@SHANEB731 But, I give tips to whoever wants them. But, I'll only identify SERIOUS problems like a happy left foot or other simple and small incremental changes. The most important tip you can give is whatever you change in your swing, make them small once you learn to hit the ball. KEEP YOUR SWING!
1, most of the top 100 teachers can't break 80. 2, people who play golf really really well don't know how to explain technique. they just instinctively play well, and can only relate what they feel which usually isn't what is really happening. jim mclean proved this when examining ben hogans five lessons. and 3, doing what feels comfortable isn't always the best advice.
@shavedhead78 in the past 20 years the average handicap has gone from 15.6 to 15.3. all the tech, video, therioes, and no one geats better. haney has 7 levels of insructors! level 2 is better then 6, why? just get to look at someone older? what a joke.
Is it possible that the hands can be too unified on the grip? I believe alot in the basics and to me, it looked like my right hand was too far up on the shaft. (my right hand lifeline was more on my left thumb pad, and not so much on the thumb). I moved my right hand down more on top of my thumb and I was hitting these great penetrating shots and was more on balance at finish….
