Using the Long Golf Grip

Posted by MACRO Golf on December 24th, 2020

A consistent golf grip will improve the ball striking, fix the slice, and make you more consistent and give you an all-around yet better golf game.

If you are planning or ready to achieve the Anchored Golf Grip, use a 300-yard tee to steady yourself. Thus, it is a two-foot putt to understand the club effectively. You may believe that it is quite strange to emphasize the grip, yet the leading ball strikers are already using the same to improve their ball-strike rates. 

Leading players assert that bad habits can be found in the early days, and often, these don't turn out to be a good idea. If you want to deliver the clubface square on the ball each time, you need to have a proper grip. So, it is crucial to get good golf and great scores in the end. 

Thus, great coaches suggest long Golf Grip. They start training with the right grip and stance. They will move to the next step only if their student has grasped the concept and learned how to control their driver, putters, stance, etc.

• Evaluate the current grip

Before we start getting a bit technical about the best way to hold the club, you need to evaluate your current grip style. If you do not have the right stance, there are good chances that you need to take professional help in the matter.

So, evaluate how you pick the club and what position your fingers are in. You should know how comfortable and confident you feel about hitting the great golf shot on the course. There is always room for improvement, and a professional can help you get the right stuff and results for your needs. 

• The grip size

Your clubs have the best-rubberized grips on them, and they have a standard size on these. However, that doesn't mean that these are the best ones for your needs. Different size grips exist, and those are out there for a reason, and maybe you even need to invest in a new one - as suggested by the golf experts. 

If you observe that you are consistently pulling or slicing the same despite adopting the hold, you may need new grips. The professional help is again a good idea as they can help you find the hands' shape and size. For instance - if you have petite hands, shorty fingers, you need short grips, but you need to buy the larger grip ones if you have long hands and fingers.

It is the best time to pick the club and start perfecting the golf and the grip.

• Focus on the weaker hand

Always pick up the same with the weaker hands and then turn the same over so that you can see the knuckles of the same and then use the V (created by index and thumb) with the right shoulder. 

Now allow for half an inch of the club to poke out of the top of the grip and attain the best results.
