This is a great tip to
add height and power to
your shot.
Experiment
with a Weak Grip
In my experience, a
weaker grip adds power
and height to the
average golfer's shot. I
recommend at least
experimenting with this
grip. When you take your
grip, V's should be
created between the
thumb and pointer finger
of your right and left
hand. For example, I'll
use the right-handed
golfer. Most golfers
learn from the beginning,
to make both of the V's
created point at the
right (back) shoulder.
The result is a fairly
strong grip. Here are
the steps you should
take if you are
interested in trying a
weaker grip.
1. Put the strong grip
on the club. (Both V's
pointed at your right
shoulder)
2. Don't move your left
hand
3. Keeping your right
pinky in place, unlock
the rest of your right
hand, and rotate
everything over the top
of the grip. Your left
thumb should be totally
enclosed by your right
palm. Now the V formed
by your right hand
should be pointed more
at your head, or maybe
even toward your left
shoulder.
This new grip is going
to feel strange at first,
and may not work with
your particular swing.
But with certain swings,
this weak grip is the
missing link.
