I always had a feeling that gripping correctly is the most important part of the game, especially, to be consistent. I cannot wait to start practicing using your gripping technique. Thank you so much Matt for clarifying how to grip the club. I forgot to ask if this is true for when chipping as well?👌👍👍👍👏👏👏🙏

  • @wallstreetoneil
    @wallstreetoneil 3 роки тому +76

    The real reason you want to do this is because of your Right Elbow - the power of your swing, like when throwing a ball, naturally comes (watch yourself throwing in slow motion to see it) when your Elbow LEADS the Hand when throwing - creating an accelerating whipping motion with the hand. Thus, when taking your Right Hand Grip, you want to do so with your Right Elbow in that position so it will more easily find this position in the golf swing. If you do the Reach/Grab technique, your Elbow rotates the wrong way & will rob power potential

    • @formulaic78
      @formulaic78 3 роки тому

      So when you're swinging should it feel like your right arm is doing most of the work on downswing? My old swing which is pretty weak and leads to slice always feels like both arms are swinging equally. When messing around with it I've tried holding the club such that it feels like my right arm is doing most of the work. It feels great but usually results in me sending the ball straighter but left. So I've stepped away from that, but perhaps I should stick with it and fix whatever else in my swing is sending it left? I live (and am currently trapped due to COVID) in a city where lessons in English cost $200 so I'm trying to rebuild my swing solely using UA-cam videos like these and figure out what I'm doing wrong.

    • @wallstreetoneil
      @wallstreetoneil 3 роки тому +2

      @@formulaic78 I would suggest you go to the UA-cam Channel of Eric Cogorno - he has an amazing online UA-cam channel of golf swing mechanics that will absolutely help you build knowledge. Basically, if your miss is a weak slice, your control over the clubface being square to your back is completely lacking. Eric has hundreds of videos that will help you understand how to control this with either or both of your left or right hands

Went back to overlap on my pinkie fingers. WOW what a difference it made. All my shots went at least 15 yards further. I was releasing the club through the shot. Thank you very much.

    This is the 1st vid of urs I've ever seen, and I'm SUBSCRIBING! Just tried gripping my club this way and it feels natural, relaxed and more powerful at the same time. I'll be trying this out tomorrow at the range! Thanks MrShortGame Golf!

    This made a huge difference in my game! It turns out I've never been able to square the clubface properly because my right hand didn't work well with my left hand. I made this change and my fade/pull/slice/shank turned into a draw or a toe hit. I've got some dialing in to do, but I feel like I've finally made a change that makes a difference. I feel like my hands are working together and I can swing with authority and confidence. Thanks, Matt!

      ...the most important aspect is the scorecard homie, nobody cares how, only how many. Heres something you may not realize: you're not Adam Scott. Stop trying to swing like Adam Scott. 👍
      I've been teaching 18 years. At first yeah, I was teaching "let's get closer to perfect" but that doesn't make anyone better (well...not 68 year old retirees anyway). I learned to help people move in a way that makes sense for their bodies. Ever had a lady with very large breasts? It's different is what I'm saying. Don't teach Adam Scott if Adam Scott isn't standing there.
      What I wish he would say in this video is that there's a reason to do things. For example, he lays the club in his right palm resulting in the club going back inside and open. Why do that? He's got 2 good hands, why remove one? I suspect he fears low and left. He built a swing that makes low left pretty much impossible. That's what everyone does: "just not THAT". Your brain is going to fight whatever pattern you don't like seeing, know that going in. You're throwing darts not performing a dance, nobody cares how...only how many
      Build something you can repeat...then we'll talk grip.

    • @ryanroberts8260
      @ryanroberts8260 3 роки тому +2

      Your grip can be perfect but unless you stay in the shot until the ball leaves the club face you will push fade if you lift before impact. If you lift when the ball is on the face pull hooks will be the miserable result. Practice throwing a softball under handed down the target line as far down you can. Do it from a correct golf set up and make sure you're still looking at the divot when the ball has left the face. You'll feel your right shoulder leading your right hand down and under as acceleration carrys the clubface and ball straight down the line. The best advise I ever got was "swing down the line as far as you can" it encourages natural timing, solid contact, acceleration, accuracy and consistency. I started firing dead straight. Watch my boy Fred "Boom Boom" Couples he let's nature do its thing. Seems to work for him 👊 Good luck and good golf my friend 👍

I can draw, fade …(on purpose) for the first time in 44years!

      Have to agree with you. This guy is saying he doesn't care about the left hand for right handers is extremely important. Bad habits occur if you play around with the left hand or right for lefties. The back hand can go where ever it feels comfortable. Basic fundamentals to hit a golf ball. Plus he has an annoying voice.
