Really helpful, only just realised my grip was wrong after 20 years of playing, surprised by the difference it made! Also nice dig to the cricketers!! 🤣
Yes thanks for this ….it’s always so good to go back to basics . Something I have noticed recently with my own grip is simply to relax and not tense up and grip the club till the whites on my knuckles show . Also I had the tendency to overthink the swing too much ,something that has come from watching way too many coaching videos and trying to copy them. I think it’s important to find a coach that you can relate to and stick with for tips and advice .I find your instructions clear and simple to follow so thanks .
For me is it also very important to keep the thumb "long". If I don't do that, I get sharp pain in the thumb and can't play anymore. Tended to hook the ball the last two days with a closed face, will check my grip with that video, could well be a too strong grip with my left hand (playing lefty).
Really interesting point about spacing the fingers, will have to try that. Thanks Andy
I always new my grip was why things happened. You just explained it so well. Thanks Andy
If you wear a glove u can put dots on the two knuckles you want to see, as a reminder until it becomes natural.
Great explanation of grip and you have just given the answer for me to me what I have been working on .
Keep Up the good work .
PS need to gain some distance with driver but if i speed up to much variance ad guidance ?
Massive Thank You Mr Carter for braving the cold & making me see that my grip is wrong will be addressing the problem in couple of weeks when I'm off work. I'm left handed & most of my drives go left after going straight for about 100yrds & every now & again my irons finish left of the green I'll be working on a more netural grip soon 🏌♂️⛳🥶
Great video again
Confirms my grip is weird. One knuckle showing on both hands. Basically the reverse of the butterfly grip for the chipping video
Cheers mate grip and tension have been a focus of late and is helping to improve my overall swing
Great tip
Love the dig at Pommie cricket team! Great work Andy
Excellent video as always Andy. Grip isn’t something I’ve ever thought about apart from when I am using my driver. There’s always something to tweak or think about in golf 👍🏻
Yes. The grip. Yes!! 🙌
Sounds like you need a trip to Australia if the cold is bothering you!! Mind you the Nazi like laws we have had thrust upon us recently may be a deterrent!!
Great tip Andy, good review to know what you're doing with your grip and how it affects the ball flight.
Quick question, sort of related to gripping as part of set-up. Bryson released a 2-part series on how he swings the club, and he was talking about how he rotates the upper part of his left arm in, and rotates his forearm/wrist out. Then for his right arm it's opposite, upper bit rotates externally, lower bit internally. I'm wondering if there is a right way to do this (the way Bryson is doing it?), and what how playing around with the rotation affects the ball flight? I'm tempted to try it out but am afraid it would mess up my swing royally … may be someone with a more consistent swing such as your fine self would be able to enlighten us? 😁
So did you get those balls from Jackson's bag😂
I've been working with my pro on weakening my grip to get rid of that pull left but I've noticed that I've been concentrating on the right hand only, and not weakening the left hand as well, which can cause the ball to still go left. Have to remember to adjust both hands!
Great video Andy, been working on my grip had a weak grip before but I'm now practicing the neutral every day.
You explained the trail hand better than in other videos I've watched. I recently went for a fitting and was advised my left hand was in a good neutral but my right was strong, so your timing is good 🙂
Great video as always Andy, something I must check
How tightly to grip the club? I seem to get better results when I loosen my grip significantly, although it doesn't seem like the correct thing to do. Thanks for the videos!
Excellent video, I’m too strong grip so hook city. You in consultation with my coach have”straightened me out”. Trying to go more down the line and is getting me another 5-10yds. Happy days. Great explanation Andy.
The cricket comment had me in tears 😂😂😂
I keep hooking my iron shots so far left when trying to work at the range and the first grip and you demonstrating what happens is exactly how I held the club, and it’s exactly how your first shot went!
This video is so helpful and can’t wait to try work on how I’m gripping the club
ive seen a lot of grip videos saying the same thing, but you nailed it here. cheers man!
After watching this today I went outside and hit some plastic training balls in my yard, and was amazed how straight they all went. Looking forward to trying real balls on a real course. Does this grip change work with woods?
Great video as always Andy – love the cricket analogy
Brilliant information, thanks Andy! One question which I struggle with is, if the total amount of pressure on the grip from both hands is 100%, what % should each hand have? Is it equal? Is it more on the top hand (leading hand) or more on the bottom hand (trailing hand)?
Great video to go back to basics! It seems the more I work on other aspects of golf, the more it need to go back firm up my basic golf skills.
Thanks for this video mate – really good. Does this grip advice work with driver?
Another thing I need to work on 😂
Would you recommend a grip trainer?
