    2 knuckles visible with Irons, 2.5 with FW and 3 with Driver

    I realized today that in order for me cure my slices with FW and driver I need to have a stronger grip.

    Is this the correct way of swinging FW and the driver or am I simply compensating for a swing flaw somewhere I'm not seeing?

    FYI, One thing I don't do with a driver is extending out both my arms on middle of upswing (where the club is somewhat parallel to the ground). Would fixing this help me shoot straight without overly strong grip?

    It's straight during backswing, it's straight on the downswing but during the finish where BOTH of my arms should be straight, I bend at my elbows for my driver.
