How to Grip a Golf Club Properly: A Quick Guide

Mastering the correct grip is key to improving your golf game. Here’s a simple guide to help you grip your club properly, and how ForeLinksGolf gloves can enhance your grip.

Step 1: Choose Your Grip Style

  • Overlapping Grip (Vardon Grip): Pinky finger of the trailing hand overlaps the index finger of the lead hand.
  • Interlocking Grip: Pinky finger of the trailing hand interlocks with the index finger of the lead hand.
  • Ten-Finger Grip (Baseball Grip): All ten fingers on the club.

Step 2: Position Your Hands

  1. Lead Hand:

    • Hold the club at a 45-degree angle.
    • Place the club in the base of your fingers.
    • Wrap your fingers around the club with the thumb pointing down the shaft.
  2. Trailing Hand:

    • Position the trailing hand below the lead hand.
    • The pad of the trailing hand rests on the lead hand’s thumb.
    • Wrap fingers around the club, thumb pointing slightly towards your lead shoulder.

Step 3: Grip Pressure

  • Hold the club firmly but not too tight. Imagine holding a tube of toothpaste without squeezing any out.

Step 4: Check Alignment

  • Ensure the V’s formed by your thumb and index finger point towards your trailing shoulder.
  • The clubface should be square to the target line.
