Before doing anything with your grip, sometimes consulting experts for golf grip instruction is a wise idea.

Plenty of golfers tinker with their swing with only the thought process of, “I’d like to stop slicing the ball (or hooking the ball, duffing the ball, etc., etc.).” That’s a pretty macro starting point and one that usually leads to over-compensation. For example, a player who slices off the tee might take an exaggerated stance, aim far left of target or hit an iron rather than fix the root problem.

And that may work temporarily, but it will only lead to more frustration. Because golf is somewhat paradoxical—it’s a tremendously difficult game that looks so easy—we tend to think solutions should be equally complex.

A lot of the times that’s not the case. What we must remind ourselves is that the swing starts at address, from feet positioning, to proper golf grip instruction. That’s what we’d like to review today.

Sometimes a simple drill can go a long ways in helping amateur golfers.

In the brief video below, PGA teaching professional and the founder of US Golf TV, Todd Kolb introduces a basic concept for a proper golf grip instruction. As Kolb asserts, alignment is crucial.
