hand grip and finger grip
Big Some golf enthusiasts do not pay much attention to the way of grip when playing ball, which seems not very important, as long as the feeling of holding is "comfortable". In fact, the grip is the most important in the basic movements of golf. As the only connection point between the club and the body, the hand will directly determine the position of the club and the direction of the club face when hitting the ball. This means that if the grip is correct, the position of the club face when hitting the ball will be appropriate, allowing the ball to move in the target direction. Today, we will explain the impact of two types of grips on the ball differently, and introduce the advantages and disadvantages of the three most mainstream grips.
Hand master stick
is synonymous with the name. This method of grip is mainly to hold the club in the palm of the hand and penetrate the index finger and palm of the left hand. The lower end of the grip is placed on the middle joint of the index finger, while the end is on the edge of the small fish in the palm, and the middle part is on the palm. This method of grip originates from Ben Hogan's bestseller "Ben Hogan's Five Lessons". This grip position often affects the player's narrow swing and limits the movement at the top of the swing; more often it increases the inclination angle of the club when aiming, resulting in a steeper hitting angle when hitting the ball.
Finger grip
Finger grip placing the club at 4 joints of the left finger, the bottom end of the grip is placed on the joint of the index finger, and the end is placed at the joint of the little finger. This grip position can reduce the limit at the top of the swing, thereby achieving a larger swing. Because this grip will reduce the inclination angle of the club, so that there is a smoother angle when lowering the club, and hitting the ball downward. Moreover, when using irons and wooden clubs, the wrist will be flipped, and holding it on your fingers will make it easier to hit the ball-release-receive the rod. is highly recommended for everyone to use .
stacked grip
stacked grip, also known as Walden grip, is currently the most choice for golfers. 90% of players in the tour will use this grip, which was first used by British golfer Harry Vardon. This overlapping method of gripping the rod is achieved by placing the little finger of the right hand in the gap between the index finger and the middle finger of the left hand. Friends with strong palms and long fingers are particularly suitable for this method of grip, which is commonly used by adult golfers.
Interlocking grip
This is the most used grip method after the overlapping style. It became popular because Jack Nicklaus and Tiger Woods, both players who won the most championships, were using it, which attracted a large number of audiences. Similar to the overlapping style, the difference is that the index finger of the left hand and the pinky finger of the right hand cross each other. With fingers connected, the hands are closely connected together, so this method of gripping is especially suitable for players with small hands. If players use the stacking style, the fingers may not be long and strong enough, resulting in the change in the grip when the top of the rod.
Baseball grip
Baseball grip, also known as ten-finger grip method, the fingers are tightly attached to each other, and there is no interaction between the index finger and the little finger in the first two grip methods. This kind of stick grip is common when teenagers first learn the ball because it is easy to master and control the club, and pay more attention to the swing movements, which is sought after by many coaches.
Which type of grip is the best? can be tried all three, and then choose the most comfortable and best control of swinging grip. After all, suitable for the most important thing.
