Guys when I take the club back I try to keep the left of the the back of the left hand on the target as long as possible now each and every one of you can do that because I’m going to show you what you have to look out for you
Grip that golf club now look at the back of your left hand you notice how the back of the left hand is pointing up in the sky you see that now notice the cup face it is also pointing up in the sky so what what does it say they’re both
Going in the same direction I mean people stand up over a do shot and they take their hands they they do all this and they think that face is going to stay straight every little movement that that left hand makes is going to influence that club space look at it every little
Movement right here

So true, the back of the left hand or the emblem on the glove is exactly what I’ve used to control the club face to hit any shot on command for the past 30 years whether you need to de-loft or add loft, have it open or closed, it’s all in the lead hand. The trail hand just adds the power & stability. Tiger has talked about the same thing as Travino using “the emblem of his glove” to manipulate the club face to hit different shots. It’s basic physics, pulling is significantly more stable than pushing and is why the lead controls everything and the trail adds speed. Also simply Understanding the new laws of ball flight makes the game so easy it’s laughable, the face controls the launch & the swing path in relation to the face creates the different shapes, it’s all about what spin you want to create. In golf the same as everything else, knowledge & self confidence is power.
Best advice any golfer can get, at any stage in their golf career. It’s especially useful for beginners
