Grip Pressure Secrets - SMASH Factor Golf Instruction

[joey6773]

I struggled with that very thing myself. The looser I hold it the more the ball goes boom. What got me onto this looser grip was a video I saw of Julius Boros. He has a tremendous amount of reverse lag on the start of the back swing. For anyone who tries it, at first it feels like your giving up control of the swing. I have a lot of videos on here as well and normally don't post comments. Im just some guy but this tip is probably the best tip a golfer can receive, excellent tip and video.

@joey6773 I totally agree, too much tension and pressure in the hands is a total swing wrecker!! Very light grip pressure is my first thought when setting up to swing!!

Great fundemental give here.To take a step further,it is not just the grip pressure but where it comes from.The last three fingers in the left hand and the middle two fingers in the right.Of course a proper grip which preceeds that.You can add very little pressure or take some off as long as the grip is only in those fingers mentioned.Light grip pressure is not universal since hand strength varies so much.Try this and you will feel the difference right at home a whip type feel.

"That is bad, that is horrible, that's one of the worst easy to get I to the backswing..." That's what I do :( lol

It is not holding onto the club weak. It is the pressure in a few of your fingers that balance the club. The pressure counters the movement and while there is pressure in your fingers it allows the club to lag away and the wrists to be soft,

Also, the movement away must be with the hips or the pressure in the hands will not work correctly!

This is one of the absolute fundamentals of the golfswing!!

If you grip it right (like shown here), take the correct stance at adress and maintain your spine angle through the larger part of the swing, you have the main ingredients of a good golf shot.
