Which Golf Grip to Use?

Video Transcript

In this segment, I'd like to go into detail as to whether you should use a varden grip, a ten finger grip, an interlock grip or a pure baseball grip. The first thing that I would recommend is that you try this with your grip. You try the waggle. If you do interlock, try the waggle with the interlock, get it square. Use your interlock grip. It probably will turn your hands in a certain direction, but use your interlock grip. And then, just get into position with your interlock grip that's where and how you should hold the club. With the varden grip and the two versions of the varden- whether it's in the crease here or with your pinkie on top of that forefinger- do your varden grip. Square it, just like that. Put it down. That's your grip. I use the pure baseball grip. And the reason that I do is that if you really had a baseball bat and you use the interlock grip, let's say, and try to hit a baseball, since you don't have all of your fingers on the club, you're somewhat weaker. Also, with your thumb there it takes a little bit away from it. So I would like you to try the pure baseball grip. And the way to do that is to hold it just like a baseball bat. You've held a baseball bat. You've waggled that bat. Make sure when you waggle it, though, right here the club face is square. It's not like this. It's not like this. It's square. Waggle it. You're a baseball player: waggle it. And when you're in that position, with a pure baseball grip, that is a grip that I would like you to try. Also, if you want to make your grip thicker, more like a baseball bat, you could get a tennis grip and put it around, or something else you could put around. You could build up a grip just with one club, like a 7 Iron, so that it's approximately the same as a baseball barrel. It has a much better feel, as opposed to holding a thin grip. Baseball grip: thick. Give it a try. Baseball grip.
