A weaker grip on the golf club adds power and height to the average golfer’s shot, says Bobby Eldridge, Head Professional at Pure Point Golf.

Bobby recommends at least experimenting with this different type of golf grip.

When you take your grip on the golf club, V’s should be created between the thumb and pointer finger of your right and left hand.

For example, with a right-handed golfer - Most golfers learn from the beginning, to make both of the V’s created point at the right (back) shoulder. The result is a fairly strong grip.

If you are interested in trying a weaker grip, here are the steps you should take:

1. Put the strong grip on the club. (Both V’s pointed at your right shoulder)

2. Don’t move your left hand

3. Keeping your right pinky in place, unlock the rest of your right hand, and rotate everything over the top of the grip.

Your left thumb should be totally enclosed by your right palm.

Now the V formed by your right hand should be pointed more at your head, or maybe even toward your left shoulder.

This new grip is will feel strange at first, and may not work with your particular swing.

But with certain swings, this weak grip is the missing link.
