Being an old salt and a stickler for proper fundamentals I wonder how many people feel the grip is the most important aspect of all the different set up components?
I happen to have strong grips with both hands and know people with weak grips as well....I feel you can play great golf shots from either side of the spectrum as long as the tension is low and the grip in not in the palms. I remember my very first coach having all of us stand relaxed with our hands at our sides to show our natural predisposition for hand placement. I think it's an awesome way to find out how to place the club in your fingers w/ the least tension. I can see all 4 knuckles with my hands at my side so my grip is very, very strong, but that's how I keep tension out of my swing.
Does anyone else pay as much attention to grip as this old man?
