There are 3 things in the golf grip you should focus on when swinging the club. Most golfers don’t know what they are or when to feel them.

Great tips, thank you!
do you teach in san diego? great info thanks!
I’ve played with the bottom of my palm slightly past the end of the grip and numerous teaching pros have never mentioned that when examining my grip. What do you think is the problem with that? Seems like you explain the why in the other instances.
Great video topic so many people underestimate how big an impact set up has on the entire swing if you can have a perfect set up for your body it makes the golf swing so much easier and repeatable.
In the immortal words of 38 Special;
“So hang on loosely. And don’t let go. If you squeeze too tightly, you’re gonna lose control”.
Geeze I hope I can remember all this stuff when I'm swinging
Excellent Video – thank you
That is one of my problems
Roger King has some more grip videos. I was gripping high on my club's high, causing my wrists to be blocked. Grip down and keep the club in your fingers, and watch distance improve. Wrist action helps the golf swing.
Good video but get out the way so I can see that nice lady!
The 'pause at the top' was an eye opener for me. I started doing the rope swing drill and I started feeling it. Much easier for me to feel it with a wood, but when I wait for that pause then start the down swing, easy and smoothly, good things usually happen.
Matt, I saw a golf video last week and the instructor said that the most pressure from the hands is the last 3 fingers on the lead hand. Comment?
Thanks!
Hey man-This is the best grip vid I've seen! Cheers and Happy 4th!!
Thank you, Mr. SG.
I'm a pretty good golfer but that was great! Fundamentals are everything in every sport. Thanks for the video.
What size of grips do you use? Do you have different sized grip on your driver than your irons? Do you have a particular brand of grips you prefer? Just curious, enjoy your videos
Once a year i fight with my grip and get stuck in my swing, it is really odd. God Bless me with small hands so I have problems at times get my hands comfortably wrapped around the club.
Hey Mr SG, been following you for years and another great video. Question, how did you wind up back in Southern Cal??
