As a new golfer, you will probably change your grip around many times as you develop your golf swing. The type of grip you use will affect the flight of your golf ball more than you know. As an
experienced player, you will want to experiment with different golf grips to achieve the type of golf shot that you want.
The weak golf grip, can give many players the altitude and power they are looking for. But along with achieving greater altitude, it also creates a fade, left to right ball flight. Known
affectionately as the ?Banana Ball? by many. But, kept under control, this golf shot can produce greatly desired affects on the golf course.
To achieve a weaker golf grip simply grip the club in your normal manner, the index finger and thumb of both hands naturally form V's, and these V's normally should be pointing towards your
right shoulder?. Fixing your left handrotate your right hand up and over the club and left hand ?counterclockwise?. The V of your right hand will point toward your left shoulder. The effect will
be a fade, or left to right flight of the ball.
Change this grip around until you learn the degree of turn on your right hand that creates the amount of fade you desire.
The strong golf grip can help many players to eliminate a persistent golf slice. Try rotating your right hand clockwise on the golf club to encourage a right to left ball flight. If you do have a
slice, try this grip and see if it is the answer that you have been looking for. Those of you with a good straight golf shot experimenting with this stronger grip can produce a hook or draw.
The affect your golf grip has on your balls flight path can be exactly the minor change to your swing you have been looking for. It takes experimenting with different golf grips to see just what
results your new grip will generate. But the good news is that many times a minor adjustment in your golf grip can greatly help you to produce the desired golf shot you are looking for. So play
with your golf grip and note the difference you can achieve, you might be surprised as too the amount of change you can gain by switching to and from a weak or strong grip.
