    Thank you. I was struggling with other videos. Great instruction, especially because most videos are focused on right handed golfers.

    I have been struggling with a slice, and tried not locking in my fingers and I hit the ball straight off the tee for the first time ever. Played a great round and happy withy drives.

      Dude, same. I was just at Top Golf, and I tried not interlocking my fingers, and I was hitting so many more consistent shots.

    As long as you are not cursed with cross-dominance and are for example a left hander golfing left, then you might be a mirror image of a righty golfing right. I'll buy that. However, if you are a right hander golfing left, you are most definitely not a mirror image of anyone but a lefty golfing right. Think about it; dominant eye is on the other side, stronger arm on the other side, stronger leg other side, yada yada yada. Four different types of golfers, not two.
    This is my excuse anyway, and until Mickleson makes himself available for reasonably priced one-on-one instruction, I'm sticking to it (this is assuming even he knows how he does it, which is a big assumption).

    I’m Left Handed, and have just started playing Golf with Lefty Clubs, but my Right Hand is more Dominant and I Strike like a Right Handed Golfer would.
    I place my Left Hand at the Top End of the grip, and my Right hand further down the Grip.
    Am I doing this wrong? Or do other Lefties have this Habit? I’ve picked the Habit up from playing another Sport (GAA Hurling)

      Don't choke up on the driver just a few millimeters ....stand tall and hit the ball

      I'm right handed but, being Canadian, am cursed with playing left handed golf. Your right hand should be at the top of the club and your left hand below your right hand. Before anyone else asks why being Canadian makes so many of us left-handed golfers, it's because we learned to play hockey shooting left.

      Exactly the same but I’m just sort of getting used to the left handed grip

    Very informative. I'm a righthander who received a set of clubs as a gift from a client yesterday. The clubs are for lefties. I figured since I have no experience with golf I can use these clubs and learn how to play.
    Thanks for teaching me how to hold the clubs left handed.
    Also...Go Bucks.

      Stick with your right handed clubs as golf courses are setup for those right handers. I am a lefty and a draw is the go to shot for us.

  • @justpar2012
    @justpar2012 6 років тому

    That's pitiful with golf trying to grow or keep golfers for left handers to be forgotten to have to reverse the right hand instruction. Good for you.

    this is not right in my opinion if you are left handed, buy a normal right handed golf club! I'll tell you why! I am left handed and still use all clubs (driver, putter, fairway) designed for right handed people. I can still do this by positioning my feet towards the hole at starting point of my tee, lay the tee down with my left palm and put the ball on it, and before I swing, I can just easily rotate my hips in a 180 really fast, switch my grip, rotate 180 clockwise again, lean back, stretch, and swing and I am automatically an eagle shooter. Genius I tell you!
