Thanks Peter, I’ve only just realised after 25 years of golf that gripping the club correctly with the right hand has given me more power and definitely straighter shots. For me the thumb on the left side of the grip has made a huge difference! Look forward to our lesson on Thursday 😀

[@johnschwartz1536]

Great explanation Peter on how the right hand properly grips the golf club. When I grip the club, I am always aware of the "joint pockets" on each hand and the "trigger" finger of the right hand. This definitely gives me the needed wrist flexibility to add power to my swing! Good Job Peter! Keep up the good work!!!

[@ald7688]

Wonderful demonstration, Peter superb. Thank you.

[@dougieo925]

Really well explained, thanks.

[@user-nw3ey6oz5w]

Gold! The best explanation of this critical stage of setup I have yet seen.

[@ginanjarnugraha3794]

Thank you Peter, great tip!

[@ahmadghanem2414]

Great tips. Thanks

[@adnantassawar3085]

Ty very much sir...obliged

[@meagainandagain5756]

Nicely done Sir.

[@tomeldridge2915]

Love it, Peter. I wouldn’t anticipate many hits on this video because you are not advertising how to drive the ball 300 yards. Of course in truth you are doing just that. As your instruction here is an integral part of the whole process of building a correct golf swing.

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Thanks Tom. Very few people are capable of driving 300 yards, so I don’t see any point in offering false promises.

[@davidbell2207]

Nobody mentions the right trigger finger, excellent video

[@dm4877]

This video changed everything for me! I wish I had found this sooner. Thank you Peter.

[@PeterKnightGolf]

My pleasure. Glad it helped you.

[@redmondlyons7132]

Best video I have found on this,excellent simple advice..thanks Peter!

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Thanks Red

[@stephenfairbrother6009]

Thanks.

[@kipkapper3014]

good stuff. moe norman held it in his palm. and said the fingers are killers. crazy how many differing opinions there are in this crazy game.

[@Baz303]

Great video, it's the little things isn't it, you could put a great swing on it but if the setup isn't right it's not happening. The knuckle and finger I try to imagine a question mark...helped a lot. Thanks 👍

[@robertsmit9872]

Excellent, and one of the most important keys to a good swing!

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Thanks Robert

[@stuartjames7820]

Hmm, interesting. I've been noticing that moving my right hand slightly counter clockwise helps with compression but was struggling to work out the "correct" position. This tip with the knuckle may help make my grip position more consistent so will give that a go. That knuckle has definitely been under the grip for me up to now. Thanks for the video.

[@timmartin9354]

I'm impressed! I've been searching for something to fix my right hand grip. It's always loses control. I checked my grip after your video and indeed u were right. My right forefinger Knuckle was UNDER. I made the change and now it feels secure. I love it. Thx Peter. This video may revamp my swing.

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Thanks Tim, you might find this especially helpful with your short game as well.

[@timmartin9354]

@PeterKnightGolf I'll find out soon lol. I appreciate. I told my friend if everything goes well I'll send him the video LOL.

[@joer8273]

Moving my right hand as you directed transformed my consistency. Less than an inch of right pointer knuckle movement made a world of difference in my game this weekend. Thanks!!

[@PeterKnightGolf]

My pleasure Joe.

[@dj-flights7376]

Thank you for showing which finger joints to place the club in the right hand! I have tried different grips and was never sure what was correct. I just tried this next to my desk and it feels great! Can't wait to hit for real with it. (I'll check your left hand video next, thank you).

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Let me know how you go.

[@roddnelson1519]

Ironically I just saw a Moe Norman video where he said he did grip in the palm of the right hand as it gave him more control. Not that I'm going to do it. However I do like the idea of the knuckle behind the grip not under. I will give that a try. Thanks for the tip

[@email4468]

Another great video, excellent coaching and detailed information. I think after being told a hundred times about the right hand, I’m finally getting it😂

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Sounds like you’re like me, I need to hear things a few times too.

[@ag358]

Yes, this is correct Bobby Jones had a strong lead hand position but in the fingers and his right hand was what you are showing, all four steps. My own left is probably considered neutral but that right hand in the correct position adds touch and speed. Ty

[@Lloydy10]

The knuckle tip is a game changer - great teaching. Thank you

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Thanks Lloyd.

[@MS1022YT]

Great explanantion! Most people dont undertand the importance of a good grip.

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Thanks Manny

[@michaeltaylor6989]

Best advice for correct grip I’ve seen will give it a go

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Thanks Michael. Post a comment to say how you go.

[@method341]

Hello Peter, with the neutral grip, am I meant to feel those two right middle fingers turning over at impact to close the face?

[@GeeZeusJnrGTBond63]

Thanks for these tips, Peter. I worked with you many years ago at the Mirage GC Pt Douglas in the Proshop.. Tom Fielding and Keith, were your assistant pro's. I'm playing off 3 these days at the age of 60...lol

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Great to hear from you. That was a long time ago now. Sounds like your golf has been excellent for a long time. Thanks again for connecting.

[@Paul-lm5gv]

Interesting but I never heard you say anything abut the impact on the flight of the ball. Is this supposed to prevent hooking the ball with a strong right hand turning the club over too soon?

[@PeterKnightGolf]

It can certainly help prevent big hook shots. More generally it will give you better clubface control which is beneficial for all shots.

[@joeidaho5938]

I generally keep a loose right hand. Yes, it provides the power.....but all the control and stability is in the left hand. My right hand hardly grips at all...and I do the overlap grip. The thumb and first finger grips...and rest is all loose. Even then, right hand just provides power and controls swing path.

[@realcap2010]

OMG, I’ve been fighting a flip hook for two years; I moved that right knuckle behind the grip (from under) and presto!!! Thank you! I felt something was wrong with my grip but none of the pros picked up on this important little detail. Can you pls elaborate a little further on how to switch from a strong lower draw to hitting a high fade with med (789) irons? Thank you again!

[@PeterKnightGolf]

There might be another video in my response. Essentially the difference is in swing path (mostly) and clubface. It is also harder to hit the fade with shorter clubs than it is with longer ones.

[@janjaroszewicz8319]

@@PeterKnightGolf Thank you!

[@howardedwards4832]

Hi, you may be able to help. I am right handed but play golf left handed so my dominant hand is my lead hand. With most golfers it is the opposite. I struggle to square up my club face on contact with the ball. Is there any help you can give me?

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Hi Edward, I’m a left handed person who plays golf right handed, so I have the same advantage as you. Squaring the clubface should be about allowing the clubface to rotate sufficiently at impact. If it feels forced you’ll be inconsistent with clubface alignment. This video might help kzbin.info/www/bejne/hoqXp357mbWDf8U

[@einstu]

Do you ascribe to have the crease of the right elbow pointing up? If the right hand is vertical, this is difficult. For the club to fold up at the top, what should I do?

[@PeterKnightGolf]

Yes. Each elbow points to its respective hip. You should have sufficient rotation through your forearms to achieve this. Most people can rotate their forearms through about a 180deg range.

[@einstu]

@@PeterKnightGolf The problem is I'm nursing a tendinitis that I'm wondering is related to turning the forearms or hands wrong or both. Sound familiar? Lateral epicondylitis.

[@Mahasa99]

Why not use “trail hand”?

[@michaelmcaree8543]

Ive never felt comfortable with my right hand grip. All videos say have the V'S point to the right shoulder which my nuckle underneath. Im gonna try hitting with your grip even thoufh the V is pointing toward my chin

[@PeterKnightGolf]

The “V” should point to the right shoulder. Slightly outside or inside of the shoulder is also ok. As long as the grip is mainly in the fingers.

[@sausagembape677]

The good old killers, 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@wayneyoung146]

Spider-Man grip

[@kennymataboge3610]

Try swinging with your right hand only...i bet you will not hold it in that position.

[@PeterKnightGolf]

You should be able to Kenny.

[@ScrewyDriverTheMan]

Grip is not a fundamental. Look at all the top pros of the world, they all hold the club differently. There is no ERROR. People need to quit talking about the grip like this, all you're doing is giving them complexes.

[@PeterKnightGolf]

The grip is definitely fundamental. There are presences in how the hands are linked and in the placement of the hands.

[@eJunkee]

Agreed grip is HUGE fundamental. Everything else is about manipulating swing around the grip to square face. For most people neutral grip is ideal. Unless you are Dustin Johnson and use a strong grip and bow it to hit fades! Yes pros have outliers but in general most have neutral grips that enables then to shape shots in both direction. Grips also applies to both hands, you can have a neutral left and strong right hand (which can mess things up). Best to be neutral with both hands.

[@eJunkee]

Oh I forgot, wrong grip = lose of club head speed and ball speed.

[@ScrewyDriverTheMan]

@@PeterKnightGolf 100% is NOT. From Jack to Bryson, Wolff to Moe Norman, Trevino, Palmer, Snead, Hogan, etc etc - there is NO fundamental to a grip. Go look at all the grips of the top 50 players of ALL TIME, you would be caught for telling porkies there are so many different kinds of ways of holding the thing

[@al1356]

@@ScrewyDriverTheManhi screwy mate, I think he is suggesting that for most there is an optimal way of gripping the club that will not encourage compensations further throughout the swing. Well that’s how I understand it. Take care and enjoy your golf 👍
