10-2-b
 

Thom, our friend from Denmark, made a good point.
Getting your thumb on top of the grip made your hand vertical, instead of turned. You can start the thumb on top, but before you grip the club with the right hand, separate the left thumb from the hand and create a gap. It's also important that you keep the left hand securely on the club while independently rotating the thumb. Keeping the hand vertical at address makes it a little easier to have it vertical at impact. If you have a book, start with 10-2-B. It tends (10) to (2) be (B) a good grip. Get it?:rolleyes: ](*,) Sorry, being punny helps me to remember things. Fewer changes between address and impact mean that there’s a chance for better consistency.

You know, you do what you can to raise'em right...and it comes to this. :D

Too much egg nog going on there aye? Haha.

Ted, I like to draw a nice thick white line on the side on the grip to show my students with a 10-2-B how the left thumb and Pressure Point #3 sit on the same line on the aft of the shaft for support and sensing/aiming the lag pressure.

Your thoughts on that?

again thanks for all of the great advice, what a great site. my question now is,with the correct grip(thumb on aft side),is this hitting stroke primarily an all arms and upper body stroke?i still feel that my lower body out races my upper.is the pivot more lateral than rotary?or does one "hit" more to the right of the target?only when i "feel" that i have the club face open am i able to hit consistent shots. thanks gt
