This is ONE way to grip the club, a very strong grip. Personally i prefer a more neutral grip, it made me deliver the clubhead a lot better when striking. The grip is very individual, so do not take what he says as a fact...because it is not.
You forgot to mention the z axis and mention how the centrifugal force relates to angular velocity and how that can change based on the insertion points of the rotator cuff 😢
Very good explanation of ‘how to’ technique. The underlying ‘why is that better’ explanation is that the Vardon grip applied correctly creates counter-torque between the hands and forearms which cause the trail wrist to max out in extension forcing that arm to fold elbow down and externally rotate which gives the trail arm and hand the MECHANICAL LEVERAGE to control the lead arm being pulled by the club and bent it the same way in the downswing to control club-head path. The grip, creates the same consistent, high leverage folding action of the lead arm in the finish.

I disagree entirely . I've played this game for 40 years and if you have a strong grip you open yourself to too many variables as the club releases . Too much movement , when I weakened my grip and got used to the uncomfortable weakness initially , I started to massively improve as my hands kept constant with less movement at impact . I STRONGLY don't recommend this advise given in this video . Look at the tour players and see how many of them flatten the lead wrist upwards ( bowing ) at the top of the swing . See DJ and Rahm as the extremes . Careful the strong grip is not going to help you .
The line you see on his club is the indicator of where ur left thimb should be(right handed). His club even has other lines to help u have a weak grip(thumb lined on the left line) or strong grip( thumb lined to the right line). U can clearly see his left thumb is eveb further right than the right line indicating an extreme strong grip. Not wrong, but i wanted ppl to know every club has an alignment where ur lead hand/grip is meant to be.
coming from a 20 yr old that started at around 1 (on and off), the most important thing at that age is getting them to love the game on their own accord. The biggest mistake a parent can make is pushing their kid into competition before they fall in love with it themselves. There’s no time frame, but when your kid starts begging you to go to the range or to chip and putt, you’ll know.
@@golfpanda thank you. I wish to give him the exposure required to reach competitive stage. Can you share what I can start doing now? I saw junior championship at 7 and 8 ages, being available as a video in Netflix.
I was told by the pga pro Martin Chuck to lay your pinky on your trail hand over your pointer finger on your lead hand. So what the hell is the right way??? Smh.
Hey sir, what are your thoughts on my grip set up… I’m a right handed but I hold lefty.. as in right hand at the top and left hand on the bottom. Seems like I’m one of very few that do this, but curious on your take
You make it simple! Can you do a grip size video? I switched to mid size cause I felt standard was a bit small I appreciate it!! Keep the videos coming
Tiger woods once said your palm is your friend… do not go too much fingers, especially with the top hand. It’s not all palm, don’t get me wrong, and this isn’t a bad tips video, but some amateurs will only hear the word fingers and it won’t be proportionate to how much palm you need to feel as well.
@@bobkeamer9404 you can play well with a strong grip as long as you have alot of body rotation coming into impact, otherwise you’ll be in the trees on the left 😃
A weaker grip is really important if you want to strike the ball harder through impact single you would have to release your club even more, a stronger grip doesn’t help with hitting through impact. A weaker grip is basically used by most tour players, I really think training a weaker grip would be a good choice

i had a bad case of the shanks with a very strong grip. switched to very weak and am seeing huge improvements in that regard...honestly it feels way better for me.
