    The part about having the club sit in the middle digit and only the first two joints of the index/pointer finger wrapping around the club was very helpful also a big key to not roll the forearms in the takeaway. Overall a very well detailed yet easy to understand video, don't be afraid to keep doing deep dives into topics because more people would become better at golf if they understood the swing as a system of movement rather than trying to patch things together chasing some "magical" tip or drill.

    So true. I was talked into going into a midsize grip a few years ago. I had this thing in my head that I needed it after a while as I adjusted to it but something always felt like it was too much work. I got totally messed up in the rabbit hole of tinkering and whatnot. Long story short I’m a standard size period, and after a lot of work I have my swing and feel back.

    The best video I have seen on grip. I now realize why I have a tendency to hit toe shots - my right hand is too strong. One of the best rounds I’ve ever had I played with a Rory type grip (strong left, weak right) and flushed everything.

    Help!
    Your channel is the very best!
    Your communication and demonstration is unparalleled.
    I have arthritis in 3 joints of my lead thumb and any pressure from my trail right hand on my lead left thumb is very painful.
    I golf 6 days a week and I love the sport and deal with the pain.
    When the pain is too much, I cannot follow your grip instructions because the pressure on my lead thumb causes too much pain.
    I then use a baseball grip with my lead left hand to keep the trail right hand off my lead thumb.
    I still overlap my lead left index finger with my trail little finger.
    This grip separates the space between my lead left thumb and left index finger.
    The swing is strong and without pain, but my consistent miss is a straight push to the right.
    Any instruction is greatly appreciated!

Quick follow up is which fingers do you feel the most pressure in the swing? thumb and index on both hands? or more in the lead back 3 fingers and the middle and ring finger on the trail hand?

  • @TheBirdieparbirdie

    What a great video! I really enjoy listening to you talk through these concepts. I've recently switched to your "preferred" grip, i.e. strong lead/neutral trail, and I've seen my rather severe several-year golfer's elbow nearly disappear. Note that I've done everything recommended by experts as far as rehab, consistently without much recovery. My theory is that I was continually re-injuring my elbow because of the nature of my swing and grip. I haven't quite figured it out, but with a very "neutral" grip it felt like I had to "crank" really hard at the bottom to deloft my irons. In any event ... also, I love the Orion's Belt metaphor. I've never heard that. It's a really good reminder not to shallow by extending the lead wrist but via supination of the forearm aided by thoracic rib bend. Awesome stuff. Thanks again!

    Recently discovered your channel and I am loving it. I tend to play with a strong lead and trail hand which a think sometimes causes my excessive hooks.
    My trail hand ( right) is partially fused so have limited mobility in all directions. I find with it being weaker on the backswing I have trouble keeping my palm on the grip. Do you have any recommendations?

    2 questions old golfing machine cat…1 flat left wrist according to tgm is an alignment of the shaft moving in line with the left arm like hammering you just hammer on a different plane in golf…so the wrist anatomy will be different to comply with alignment hence fleetwood cupping…question do y’all like going wrist fully uncocked thru ball?
    2 that shallowing thing keeping the stars in line was great so does that come with some rotation in the humerus too?

    Great video, I enjoy how deep you get into you explanation. I understand the strong or stronger lead hand grip. But I have found with my trail hand if I have a weaker grip I tend to rotate the hand over. Could you explain what I may be doing wrong? When you have a weaker trail grip should the the elbow be facing your more to your body and not to right of your body , I noticed in the video during the downswing the trail elbow leads down and comes in towards the hip pocket .

    I don't think the weak grip, which goes along with the bowed left wrist (most of the time) is a quirk. For me I could never get proper compression on the ball when I would be coming in with a bunch of knuckles. If you just stand there and take very short swings with a weak grip just using the wrists, you will see that the wrist joint kind of cradles the club and delivers it back and forth perfectly. People will also accuse the player with the bowed wrist of just turning super hard through impact, as if they're not doing anything with the hands. Jerry Kelly said this on the subpar podcast, as if it's a crap move that only the modern player uses that only works with the new equipment. Never mind Ben Hogan and Lee Trevino who had bowed wrists at the bottom, albeit Ben hogan was cupped at the top. Anyway, I think you can actively accelerate the hands through impact because they're loaded (bowed) and then unloaded (cupped) in the through swing.
    Also I think the reason bad golfers can't swing properly with a weak grip is because it is way too much in their palms. Once you get it into the fingers (that is a whole other skill that is not obvious), the forearms work independently of the humorous and then you can swing with power with a neutral or weak grip. But it looks real bad on most high handicappers because they're always trying to square it right from the top because it feels so open. Also good instructors like Malaska advocate a strong grip for students (which I see the reason why) but he himself does NOT have a strong grip himself. My dad went and saw him and my dad's grip wasn't weak before, and when he got back it looked like Paul Azingers damn grip. Then looked at Malaska and his face was hanging pretty straight down at the top with not much cup (pretty neutral).
    Anyway just some thoughts, and just for reference I'm a 2.5 hdcp and should get below scratch this year. Golf was something else because I'm athletic with plenty of speed, but I have STRUGGLED with golf like no other for YEARS. What a game. It's more complex than other sports (one reason is the center of gravity of the club is not in line with the shaft like mostly all other sports). Also I appreciate the instruction and insight you give for the more advanced player, as most is just the whole over the top instruction for the hack golfer. So thank you. Also sorry for the lengthy thread, I enjoy talking golf.
