You are doing THIS WRONG! This VIDEO will make EVERYONE BETTER @ GOLF w

[@ReSourceEnergetics]

As an orthopedic rehab specialist, I could tell you that getting the lead hand in a stronger position, modified by a neutral trail hand, is the best for your lead wrist. If the lead wrist is too neutral, you have to turn down the club with your lead hand coming into impact. This opens up all the bones in the wrist, and puts the ligaments and tendons in the most vulnerable positions. That’s why nearly all of golf wrist injuries are lead wrist injuries, and they are way more common when people had neutral lead wrist grips. This is specifically in context of the safest for lead wrist health. Alan

True that the grip is absolutely essential. An improper girp requirers the player to manipulate the face whereas a proper grip REQUIRES NO ACTIVE MANIPULATION. A proper grip allows you to simply swing without any manipulation whatsoever.

[@kdbarham]

Glad you’re realizing how important the grip really is. Well done 😊👍🏼🙌🏼

[@longevity-essentials]

Love this! Will be watching it again later with a club in my hand

[@thegrindtopar]

Probably one of the better videos on grip. Grip is something I'll be working on this winter and this video has so much golden info I'll be taking with me. Thank you for this!

[@jbgolf26]

Great collaboration! Hope to see you do one with Brian on how to practice and incorporate “tumble” into the swing.

[@charliemr.9779]

Thanks for the excellent instructional video, Brian and Brendon! Lots of practical information here. Great golfers including Hogan, Nicklaus and Tiger all have emphasized that properly gripping the club certainly is fundamental. It's the starting point of the golf swing. Brian wisely says that having the wrong grip will prevent even the best swing from working. The grip is also more subtle than many golfers realize. Yes, this video is detailed. Part of that is because it addresses many ways to get the grip wrong. The explanations are clear and backed up with straightforward demonstration. If the video is TLDR for people who already know it all, have short attention spans, or want to be fed bite-sized "tips", so be it. Keep up the great work, Brendon!👍💪

[@philb7942]

Useful to watch Adam Scott taking his grip and checking it in the air, pretty similar to what is being demonstrated.

[@jasonkelley6185]

Holy… this is what I’ve been looking for. I knew I had to get my hands on there in a way that it allowed the motion I need. This showed me the way.

[@Darren-df2wn]

The only move, thats important, is maintaining shaft flex into impact. Good luck !!!!

[@Darren-df2wn]

Yea, so it can release like a leaf spring, out of the div 😊

[@themotivationalgolfer]

You need full access to your wrist joints...360 degrees of movement and it opens up your body to allow the physics of the club to manage itself. Clubface stability...Great share here! Thanks...

[@alanwsterling]

It mostly comes down to the fundamentals- thanks for great information - and way to evaluate your swing when things go South. Cheers, Alan

[@jack-hq7gr]

Homer Kelly would be proud. Especially the Snead right finger pressure point concept for draw, fade…Brian should get more main stream credit for his insights and experience…

[@trashpar1]

It’s just so important and something that I tend to have to refocus on a few times per year People who think it doesn’t matter are nuts

[@TedInoue]

This is really great and timely. I've been working on my grip recently, trying to figure out how I should hold it for maximum power delivery while "feeling good" in my hands. Often, when I go "by the book" the club simply doesn't feel right in my hands and I'm always second guessing my swing because it doesn't feel natural.

[@craigcameron6450]

Great video. Just realised I don't grip my left hand anywhere near strong enough.

[@jackflash8756]

There are many golf grips that Tour Pro golfers use with varying degrees of lead and trail hand strengths. Dr Phil Cheetham has now been able to measure each hands grip strength using a defined method (relative to the orientation of the clubface) and probably has a database for hundreds of pro-golfers. We'll just have to wait and see if there is any correlation with the different biomechanics they use. I'd like to see the evidence that proves a particular grip is more optimal than another.

[@mbartholomew1059]

AGREE completely with HolyGrailofGolf on point "REQUIRES NO ACTIvE MANIPULATION". Therefore, active twisting the handle on downswing is not something the overwhelming majority of golfers should do. The wrist action that squares the clubface ideally comes from proper foreram rotation, torso rotation with proper pivot action.. No golf pro or other should try to do something with their hands on downswing. You don't have to believe me, but you may want to visit Bradley Hughes ($10 ebook - The Golf Swing - The Great Ball Strikers, and.John Erickson (Advanced Ball Striking). I took a 4 hour private lesson from Bradley Hughes and have gone from 7 handicap to 0 and still improving - I'm 65 years old. Took some work but mostly made numerous changes without hitting balls. Seems like getting the clubface pointing toward ground at P6 is the thing" in much of today's instruction. Certainly many tour pros can do it....but not nearly as many as we might think.

[@bigglesthwaite]

Hi Brendan, thanks for sharing your great video. Do you get to play much these days?

[@BEBETTERGOLF]

@@bigglesthwaite once a week w a group of players. We play “slams” where you get a point if you finish even par for every 3 holes. If you are over par those 3 you have to pay back. You also have to pay for total grips score. Super strict on rules. It basically feels like a tournament round. I was playing really well for a while this year but last 2 weeks I’ve been making birds but too many doubles. I’m around a 2 RN

[@biesik]

The grip is a very, very, very, very, very, very important variable! As Brian states, there is some variation.

[@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656]

There’s a reason Scottie -the best striker in the whole world-hits with a training grip all the time. Everyday I think. I’m making my 5 year old do the same as much as possible.

[@adrianjones5521]

I'm sorry but grip is not a fundamental of golf...if it were then there would be only one grip and you could not play good golf without using that specific grip. You should grip the club as such that you can create the most leverage...period. The grip will evolve over time and adapt to your physical capabilities as you create more and more power and leverage and any other grip will be inefficient and that is what is basically demonstrated at timestamp 9:25. The principles of impact and ball flight are fundamentals because they are the same for everyone, everyday, forever, grip, stance, and posture are not the same for everyone because we are all unique athletes. The fastest way to figure out your grip is to walk to the back edge of a range mat and place the leading edge against it and pretend you are pressing into a scale while trying to push the club down range. The spot where you create the most pressure the best grip for YOU at the moment. Doing this also sets your ball position for that given club due to how it is built.

[@A-FrameWedge]

The grip is a fundamental in golf. There are variations, strong, neutral or weak, or interlocking, Vardon, ten finger grip, but they all must adhere to some fundamentals. For right handlers the club must be under the fleshy part of the heel on left hand, right hand more in fingers with grip running just above the palm. And most teachers agree on pressure points, last 3 fingers of left hand and middle 2 fingers on right hand.

[@TopblokeGolf]

[@grahamjones7371]

All tour players playing with a weak lead hand are either lefties playing right eg Speith,Hogan,Morakawa viceversa Phil and/or immennsly strong Rahm Arnie

[@jordanelmquist3202]

Thought I had an okay grip but always felt a little funky. I saw Brian's IG video on grip and placing the way he is instructing is money.

Just take your left thumb off the shaft. You will never look back. When he demonstrates picking up a baseball bat…Just like that he says…then puts his thumb on the shaft and talks about thumb flexibility😅

I don’t agree with twisting the club. It’s too hard to time that unless your name is Nicholas or Woods and a few others. Mike Malaska talks about this at length. You know this Brandon.
