I don’t care that you’re making golf swings. Go ahead. But make them with the right grip!!!!!

It feels so right/correct when I grip the club. Just like my video above. Clearly I am gripping it in my fingers at address. Not sure why something changes with a swing. It’s not like the club finds some way to move around in my as I’m holding onto it with my fingers in both hands. Can that be the an illusion from the angle created as my hands get “deeper” behind me? It shouldn’t be this hard to simply grip the club correctly and maintain it throughout the swing.

It might be a bit of an illusion. Technically we’d want to see the camera plane square to the back of your hand.

Just do yourself the favor of being super diligent about it.

I have noticed the feel of the ball at impact is much better as of the past 2-3 days of working on this.

It looks better. It is going to feel odd for a while because you are making a change as to how the grip feels in your hands. But after a few weeks, a palmy grip will feel odd. Keep a club in the house and just pick it up a grip it when you walk by it. Do it just like you would at set up.

That’s exactly what I’ve been doing! Great minds think alike. Thanks man

Being cognizant about my grip this afternoon...

my heel pad is atop the grip which is in my fingers...right?

 

at A5-6:

grip is still in fingers with the butt of the grip still under heel pad...yes?

That’s what I see, but that may be wishful observation.

So let me get this straight... you went for a walk with your wife, in public, while practicing golf stuff. Then you had her take a picture so you can post it on the internet?

I'm sorry man, you're beyond help 😜

I’m not there in person or anything… but just double check it.

Admittedly, those pics look a little incriminating, but I am 100% sure I am good with the grip.

It's not a bad camera angle or weird artifact or something.

It's a grip that creeps into the palm.

And… I can stop mentioning it if you want me to.

I never want to you squelch your advice. And I did already notice the grip seemed palmy when I posted these last swings and completely expected your response. I do think my grip is “better” at times than what it seems on camera, but I definitely concede it’s palmier right now. I’ve had to take some time off from practicing as of late with fostering a little girl, so I need to get refocused. I’ll start working on the grip again. I appreciate you taking the time to look at the swing, blow up the pics, and respond. 

My lack of progress may cause YOU to feel like you’ll want to give up on me, but I don’t ever want you to hold back, especially if you think I’m just not getting it...like in this case.

    • Hello, I've been playing a Teardrop td17 F.C. putter for many years and love it. It still putts and feels as good or  better than any of the new putters I've tried and it's in excellent condition except the face has dings in it ever since I bought it used that kind of bother me. I was just wondering if it's possible to have some really shallow horizontal grooves milled into the face on a "roll face" putter. I think I would rather spend some money on it instead of trying to get used to a new putter.  Thanks
    • I agree with @klineka & @DaveP043 above.  When a new member first joins the club they cold be told that they are not eligible for tournaments until they have an established HCP.  As you said, it only takes a few rounds.  If they do not to post HCP that was their choice and choices have consequences.  If playing in the tournament is important to them then they should step up and establish an HCP.  Maybe they miss the 1st tournament, is that a real big deal?  And if it is a "Big Deal" to them then they had the opportunity to establish the HCP. As for not knowing how to report for HCP I assume your club has a pro and they should be able to assist in getting the scores reported and I suspect out of state courses may also have staff that can assist if asked.

    • Cool here's my tweak, "If a player’s ball lies in the general area and there is interference from exposed tree roots or exposed rocks that are in the fairway or 1 club length from the fairway the tree roots and exposed rocks are treated as ground under repair. The player may take free relief under Rule 16.1b.[But relief is not allowed if the tree roots only interfere with the player’s stance.]
    • I would never do the extended warranty on the $50 slow cooker.  I also routinely reject the extended service plans on those toys we buy for the grand-kids.  I do consider them on higher cost items and will be more likely to get one if the product has a lot of "Electronic Tech" that is often the problem longer-term.  I also consider my intended length of ownership & usage.  If my thought is it would get replaced in 2-3 years then why bother but if I hope to use it for 10 years then more likely to get the extension. I did buy out a lease about a year ago.  Just prior to the lease end date the tablet locked up and would not function.  I got it repaired under the initial warranty and would not have bought it out if they had not been able to fix it since IMO once electronic issues start in a car they can be hard to track down & fix.  They did fix it but when I bought out the lease I paid up for the extended warranty the would cover electronic failures because my intent is to keep that car for another 8-10 years and I just do not trust the electronics to last.  Last week the touch screen went black and was unresponsive.  It reset on the 2nd time I restarted the car but that is exactly how the last malfunction started.  I fully expect to have a claim on that on repair under the extended warranty.  I do not recall the exact cost to fix last time since I did not pay it but I think it was @ $700-$800 and I suspect that will be higher next time.
