How you connect the hands on the grip of the golf club is nowhere near as important as the position that those hands are placed on the club. There are generally 3 accepted ways of connecting the hands, the interlocking, the overlap and the split handed or as it is also called the Baseball grip.

Getting under the ball February 1, 2015 6:13 pm

I think I am living proof that you do not need a brain to be a golfer; in fact it can be a considerable handicap.

Why be custom fitted June 1, 2014 7:06 pm
