I was working on grip just this morning!  Good video - I have gone to gripping in the air since taking an instructive thrashing over several months from a certain online instructor a couple of years ago 🫢.  Still never quite got it right 🥺

While there may be many grip styles used by the best players in the world, there are certain commonalities of a functional golf grip and I wanted to put this thread together to help illustrate what th

I shot these in a mirror and then flipped them. I progressively close my fingers and grip on the club in each one. And no, my watch is not too tight. It's medium, and when I have the ulnar deviat

@Shindig, I made this quick video that may help. @iacas, please correct me if I’m off.

I ask nearly all my students to grip in air in pre shot routine. Much easier to set in fingers.

      Day 126: another busy day, so just did some mirror work. Checking set up and backswing and working on a few downswing feels.

      Day 310 - Working on my follow-through. Higher chest, belt towards the target. Small swings at first, building to a fuller swing (still not thrilled with my short backswing).

      Day 201 (19 Nov 24) - Walked the back nine at Minnesott today, played the “white” tees with the persimmon woods and bladed irons.  It’s a challenge I really like as the clubs are shorter in overall distances.  It really forces me focus on the value of the approach game.     Somehow yesterday’s post did not load / so it’s above.  Today (Day 202) I did some backyard short yardage work - 7i dink  and rolls, 9i chips and 50deg pitches - working to get it in before the rain started around noon.

      Day 51 - 2024-11-20 Played nine holes of Sanctuary Moon with a 6I while pausing in the backswing and otherwise just practicing. If you're into Star Wars, or don't actively hate it… this is worth checking out.
