Is your grip correct? No one can answer that question without seeing you swing. Why is Jordan Spieth’s grip different from Rory McIlroy or Dustin Johnson? Here’s the first half of today’s tip: The objective of your grip needs to return the club face to impact square with NO manipulation. Take a moment and read that last sentence again. How many times do you hear people say they hit the ball to the right because they didn’t release the club?! Of course, the next shot you will use your hands and hit a hook. Neither shot works well on the course. Now, here’s the second half of the secret to a better grip and swing: Let centrifugal force make your lead arm and club shaft form a straight line with a squared club face. Got that? And, unless you do something to destroy it you can repeat this almost every time you swing the club. WOW! Now the best way to check this is with slow-motion video.
