Your grip is your only link to the club, and your grip pressure says a lot about you. Slice? Hook? Your grip might be telling on you. With some understanding, a change in your grip pressure may help you hit better shots.<\/p>\n
If you’re looking to stop slicing the ball, ease up on your grip. A firm grip inhibits the ability of the clubhead to release through impact, holding the face square or open. A gentler grip will allow the forearms to rotate, the hands to rotate, and the clubface to release (close after impact). On the contrary, people who hook the ball may be releasing the club too much, and are advised to grip the club a little tighter.<\/p>\n
The next time you’re on the practice range, give this tip a try. Or, give it a try on the course if you’re confident. Perhaps there’s a hole that requires a draw when you normally play a little cut. Give it a go!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
