Okay so as I take my setup here we’re looking at the grip and once again both of those V’s that I’m creating in both hands are pointing to my back shoulder and to me that means that I have a pretty neutral grip maybe slightly strong which helps me ensure

That I have a square Club face at a dress okay now you might notice something with the pinches that we’re making with both of those hands very crucial for the pressure of where the golf club uh pressure should be when we’re holding it through our swing okay

So once again I’m going to put my hands up this way we control the golf club with these three fingers and these two fingers which is why we can interlock overlap or even have a baseball grip as long as those five fingers are working as one on the golf

Club okay to ensure that happens these pinches that we create really help the pressure and help us to have good control over the golf club without having vice grip on the golf club if I’m talking in terms of pressure with 10 being the highest and one being the

Lowest most golfers have a grip pressure of around six seven or eight we want to have control over it but we don’t want to have tension be rigid because that affects our ability to be relaxed and also to be consistent and do something repeatable okay okay so I want you to do

Something with your hands we’re going to make some guns here all right so make some guns with your hands what I want you to do is to lower your thumb right on top of your index finger and notice that we made the little crease there that we were talking about a second ago

With our golf video now curl your fingers I want you to maintain that curl once again shoot the gun hand drops on top to make the crease curl the fingers we want to keep this somewhat intact as we try to grab the golf club

Okay so if I have my pinch there and I put it in my three fingers and maintain that pinch that I have there we see our crease ends up in the right place okay same thing with our right hand we’re going to drop that right on top make our curl and now I’m

An inner Locker so I’m going to take my index finger in that finger underneath keeping my pinches together and that’s how I’m forming my grip the idea here is to get it more in the fingers than in the Palms which allows us to have feel and control over the golf

Club and I think that is crucial and very important just like all other sports I said when I play basketball I held the ball was very important for if I made a shot or not the pitches on the mound they have that ball in their fingertips to create certain you know

Ways to manipulate that ball and create certain spins on it for the curve the fast whatever kind of things they’re doing there that football quarterback is holding it on the laces and they’re trying to create that spiral and spin it so we’re the same way fingertip fingertip fingertips and trying to have

The proper form with our creases that we create pointing to our back arm and not having them be in that weaker position which doesn’t give us control over the golf club okay so that should help you with the basis of how we want to grip the golf club
