Opinions on grip?

I recently started messing around with a 10 finger grip. I've used an overlapping grip for as long as I can remember, because it's the "correct" grip. When I started swinging with the 10 finger grip, it felt much more natural. I know it helps release the club which is the reason it has added distance to my drives, but it also has added much more consistency.

What is your opinion on the 10 finger grip? My handicap index is an 8.7 for reference.

  1. Well the ten finger or baseball grip is used and has been used on the P.G.A. tour The name that stands out for me is the Canadian Dave Barr I believe he now plays on the champions tour he is a ten finger gripper.......If it works for you then thats the grip for you

    Good Luck


  2. The "correct grip" is the one that works best for you. The common problem most people have with the 10 finger grip is that you don't have as much control of the club head so it can cause some inconsistency. If that's not an issue for you, then don't worry about how someone else thinks you should play.

  3. There are multiple opinions on "The Correct grip" The proponents of each variation will pound you with their dialogue......go with what works best for you.

  4. If you feel better holding your club with all fingers on the grip, do so. After all, ball players use both hands. One has to be careful that one hand isn't the dominant hand which may affect the results.
