@jimwocha4949 keep at it with this grip and it will be a game changer!! It has fir some many of my students at my golf academy!

Hey @generockify stay with this reverse over lap grip - as the benefits will be a game changer ⛳️

@@DrillFreakGolf many thanks sir!

James so it usually will depend on the size of your hands - so that being said whatever you were doing that enabled your ball striking to jump then stick with it regardless of what others may say or advise while your playing. This is a game changer grip so Just work at it and experiment if you have your in terms of pinky getting overlapped by the lead hand!! Keep at it buddy 💪⛳️

@@DrillFreakGolf Thank you for the positive words. One of my biggest grip flaws (especially when I get tired or just lose focus) is my trail hand will get progressively stronger and slide under the handle. For some reason this grip prevents that from happening. The left index finger almost acts like a governor, not allowing my trail hand to turn under. Pretty amazing actually

@@JamesBoisoneau Very well said Jim !

Tim I actually have 2 videos on the reverse overlap grip that I promote on my channel with another coming soon on my “quick tips series” coming soon! Keep at it buddy !!

@DrillFreakGolf awesome. I appreciate. At least someone has acknowledged that grip now so I might try it. I thought I was alone lol

@@timmartin9354 lol yes you are not alone Tim - but one of the few Chosen!!

Well I am thing that you maybe gripping it a bit too hard, could be a variety of reasons for the dreaded S word, but again if your gripping it say a 1 (being extremely light ) to a 10 ( being extremely hard ) anywhere near 6 and up will be hard for you to get a proper release of the hands correctly and would lead to these issues especially on very short chip shots! Hope this helps !!

Rick, Glad you went back and when I hear of these things especially as long as I have been teaching the golf swing, I just don’t understand why not- if your just trying it out, and it works better. Jim Furyk has a different grip (double overlap that has uses, and has made a lot of money and has had a great career!! Keep at it!!

what work for u - WORK for YOU! damnnn this is revolutionary!!!! i can thank this video a zillion time

@@generockify Thank you and keep at it 💪⛳️

Stay with it David you will benefit from this grip !!

Well I’m doing this as a teaching pro a long time and never saw it so I’m sure there’s someone out there decades ago doing it but not many !

Especially on tour

Speith

@@maxsmart8954 yep there’s one but as I said not to many especially on tour!

Awesome !!

This will be a game changer for you nepheshr290 !

Awesome and glad you stumbled on this video- I also have a re-visit video on the reverse overlap grip that I have been promoting for long time!!

Jim, Could be the new positions with the grip change and also maybe too tight of a hold on the grip, but I’d keep at it as my students have had great success with this reverse overlap grip!

@@DrillFreakGolf I’m definitely going to stick with it and will tape the part of that finger until it forms a callus.

Thank you for all of these tips- and appreciated!!

@@DrillFreakGolf thanks a lot

Maggie thank you for that and I appreciate it very much !!

Awesome- Stay with it as this grip is also helping to keep your trailing hand in a great position as well for great impact !!

Jack, It would seem to me that an upright lie would be the culprit for pulling shots for reasons that are tough to completely explain here, but if you where hitting it good before the lie angle change while employing the reverse over lap grip, then I cannot understand then why the change was being made to the irons, ( unless you were not hitting it on the sweet spot ). I am very familiar with these type of changes as my son is a PGA teaching pro and respected club fitter as well but this is a first to hear through all of the years I have been promoting this type of grip of this issue.

Keith, keep at it and I also just finished a lesson earlier with outstanding results as well ⛳️

Jerry that is great to hear, and it’s only going to get better once your really used to this grip!!

Tim, That is great news !! Glad you were experimenting with this type of grip which I promote to all of my students at our golf academy!! This grip allows both hands to work properly and to help square the club with a firm or bowed lead hand and with pressure point against the pinky of the trailing hand allows for great pronation of the trailing wrist/hand. I have 2 videos on this grip and will be relaxing another in the future along with a series soon on what I like to call “The Senior Swing”- Stay tuned and keep at it !!

I totally agree!!!

So, I’ve always used this grip with putting since high school when I learned Tiger did it. Quick backstory, I was always a pretty good player. I used to bomb the ball, (b4 everyone did it). Driver and wedges on most holes. Always reaching par 5s in 2, no issues at all. I was a scratch golfer in 2005-2007. Then my job was more demanding, got hurt at my job, back surgeries, neck and nerve damage. Couldn’t golf for 2-3 years. Came back, couldn’t swing like I used to. Went from 120+ club speed to 95-100 max when I’m not in pain. It took years, to get my handicap back down to about five. It’s gone back up the past year or so to about 7. I lost significant distance off my driver, 50 to 75 yards probably. I can’t swing fast and hit the ball solid. Whenever I try to swing hard with my driver, because of my lack of flexibility now and range of motion, I hit the ground chunky hook it etc. I’ve learned to take 2/3 to 3/4 swing with my driver i can poke down the middle 230. Far cry from 300 like the old days. I’ve learned to hit mid irons in the greens or eight or nine Irons instead of wedges. I rarely reach par fives in two now. I struggle with the driver and long woods and irons. So brings me to today. I was just messing around in my garage (it is winter when I’m writing this) and I grab the club reversed overlap because I have current torn ligament in my left wrist and hurts to swing regular. I swung it felt amazing. I swung again and still amazing like my swing felt better as before. So once I get warmed up, I swung hard as I could, I didn’t hit the ground just nicked the top of the carpet perfectly. Did about 10 times in a row. Went back to my regular grip. Try to swing hard hit the ground terribly. when I try to swing hard and not hit the ground with my regular grip, it awkward and I usually miss it terribly slice it or something worse. I can’t get to the range as there’s 3 feet of snow on the ground but I think this grip might save my golf game. I can get some distance back and it doesn’t hurt my wrist to swing this way! No obviously I was just swinging in there’s no boss I’m not sure where it’s going. I did feel like I was turning it over a little bit but I could always correct that no problem especially if I’m not hitting the ground! Into anyone questioning what I’m saying, when I try to swing hard because my swing is so different it’s shorter now I can’t bring it back as far or follow through by rhythm gets thrown off and I timing and that’s why it’s so inconsistent. That’s why I do three-quarter shots with my driver basically all my clubs it’s like a wedge shot from 100 yards out. I started using voice to text so if my grammar is off for give me update as soon as I can probably in April or May

Your very welcome and hopefully you’ll continue using it as it’s been a game changer for many golfers ⛳️

Marty, Give it good try as I have had many of my students switch over to this type of grip and never looked back!! I also have searched and we couldn’t find anyone teaching this unique style of grip. The pressure points in this grip should be engaged as well and good luck sir!! Please subscribe if you haven’t already!!

@@DrillFreakGolf I hit several balls this morning in the 30 to 40 yd range and it worked fine. Moved on to 9i and 7i and those seemed fine too. I did pull a couple but that was due to more of a weight shift problem. I'm bad about hanging back and sometimes in an attempt to get off my right side I over do it. I hit a few drives and only hit a couple of good ones but my driving has been poor as of late even with a traditional grip. Funny....driving is usually the best part of my game. Anyway.....I'm going to stick with the new grip. I know it will take time to fully click. On a related subject is it ok to have a stronger grip with the irons and a slightly weaker grip with the driver? A strong grip(2 knuckles on left hand showing) helps with my irons but not so much with the driver. Oh yes....I'm a sr golfer if that matters.

@@MSDOGS1976 Showing 2 knuckles on the left hand would be basically a slightly strong grip if that as 2 1/2 to 3 knuckles would be considered strong so you ok with that - usually using the reverse overlap grip ties in both hands so they are working together hence getting a flip. Follow along with either of the 2 videos I have posted on this grip that decently allows the lead hand to come in firm or slightly bowed and the right hand very bent or pronated which is great for increase both club head and ball speed!! Being a senior player like myself I (64 years old) try flaring your lead foot and experiment with this as I have always tried to get all of my students doing this to some degree with great results for ball flight and speed! I have some videos on this, and now BTW opening up the lead foot now on tour seems to be very vogue these days more so than ever!! Keep at it !!

Thanks David !! I have some cool video drills coming for the winter season!

Tony, That is awesome and it should be doing everything you just said!! Glad it is working well for you as it has for many of my other golf academy students and RUclips followers!!

Thank you Algernon!!

Eric, That is awesome ! Keep at it buddy!!

Franco, Thanks for these kind words and cool shout out!! There will be additional videos yet to come for this particular “POWER GOLF SERIES”! Glad you are enjoying it!!

Thanks Algernon!! We have some new series’s that are coming out soon!! Stay Tuned!!

Anthony - Yes that is great and also for sure will avoid the dreaded flipping and will definitely create more ball speed for better distance!!

Mark, Give it a good shot and stay with it for a bit as we have had great success with our students using this style grip, and especially if someone suffers from any type of arthritis!

Archie It should definitely help in hitting down into the ball and getting some nice ball speed by compressing it through this video drill!!

Archie, It is basically constant pressure in the lead foot throughout the swing so you can keep in a more centered swing position. Go to a mirror and practice this so when you look at yourself your head and upper body are still centered in the swing. This should stop any swaying in the backswing and create more torque and power as you unwind towards the target. Practice starting with maybe 10 % more on your lead foot and as you turn back on your takeaway you should feel centered and balanced! Thx for the question!

@@DrillFreakGolf thanks. Pivoting around the lead leg really helped my ball striking. 👍

@@archiedarcy4845 Awesome and keep at it buddy!!

Thomas thanks for sharing your idea on this. I've spent numerous hours with some of the best players in conversations about the golf swing and there’s s more to a golf swing than most people may think! Enjoy the great game!

@@DrillFreakGolf no it is really that simple. All the other stuff is personal interpretation and keeps the Golf industry going.

@@thomasfraser9072 Good luck with your teaching and wish the best !!

@@DrillFreakGolf thank you and I wish you success in your invention as well. In fact I will check out more of your advertisements to see if such a divise could actually support my simple premise and teaching of a golf swing. Cheers

@@thomasfraser9072 Thank you Sir!!

Well that maybe for another video on transition, this drill is for engraining the hands and body to work together before impact and through post impact. However the downswing started from the ground up so probably as good series of mine to watch would be the “Down - Out - & around” series on my channel and a new series that just started is “Power Golf series “ that is a 3 part series!

Sounds like you may be either swaying in the backswing, not posting properly with some extra weight on you lead side, or as most do they are throwing the club at the ball and not moving off their back foot which is your pivot. I have some other cool quick video tips and series’s on these things I just mentioned!

@@DrillFreakGolf Cool. Thanks. I will look for them.

Alan, Thank you sir ! I have a short game series in the works and should be all done and edited coming up soon so stay tuned!

Anthony I have some new short game videos coming out soon so stay tuned!! Thanks, Scotty

Anthony this should work well for you !!

That’s great and the more you get used to the reverse overlap grip the more consistent you will get. The reverse overlap grip will get you more distance mainly because of the lead hand coming in more flat or bowed and the right hand wing more pronated. Practice and time will get you the distance consistency!! the new “Need for Speed” PYGO challenge is a great way to get consistency as well- take the challenge and be a part of DrillFreak Nation!
