How A Hammer Can Help You Determine If Your Grip Is Strong Enough

[@arah7727]

Nice clear and concise lessons on things that all of us average golfers forget about doing. Much obliged👍

Brilliant video Rick. Kept it very straightforward easy to remember because it's not over-complicated.

One of the best pieces of imagery for teaching. Great stuff. Only wish this stuff came to when I was younger.

Ken is one of the best golf instructors I've ever experienced. It's really impressive how he makes this lesson easier to understand. Thank you Ken.

how did it work when hitting a real shot? thnx for the info.

Thank you for your question. Actually, the Hammer Club is fun to hit, although it works best if the golf ball is on a tee! I have previously “cut loft” into rubber mallets and used them as training aids for golfers with great success.

@@CollegeofGolf i have practiced the action with different hammers, an axe and an old croquet club.

This is probably a good idea but I'm not sure. Let's try this. Anyway thanks for sharing.

Ive been putting nails in my entire life , its not how you hold a golf club , sledgehammer and baseball bat are the same for the same action ie direction of blow but you never hold a mallet with two hands . I have a neutral grip because i require the clubface to be where i expect it to be . Much more interesting would be likeness between a samurai sword grip and golf grip for a downward slash cut ( the one used for cutting down an opponent ) Grip should always suit a swing not swing suit a grip , this is one of the biggest misleads in golf teaching ala pga john jacobs et al . Nice mallet though
