May 25, 2007, Newsletter Issue #162: The Closed Golf Club Grip

Tip of the Week

The closed golf club grip is used to promote a draw or a hook. Make a neutral golf club grip, but roll the hands back away from the target. This is done in very small increments and should be tried on one hand at a time. I recommend using the undominant hand, then if you need more bend start rolling the dominant hand too. Learn to bend the ball in different degrees and it will add a new dimension to your game and can help you counteract sloping fairways, slice-causing side hill lies, and side winds.
