ARE YOU GRIPPING YOUR GOLF CLUB TOO TIGHTLY?

If you've just hit a bad shot, the answer is likely a big YES. Many skilled golfers understand the value of holding the club with just the right amount of pressure—think of it like cradling a baby bird in your hands.

Here’s the thing: I’ve never seen anyone grip a club so loosely that it flies out of their hands during a swing. However, gripping too tightly is a far more common issue, and it can hinder your performance.

To achieve the right grip pressure, it’s important to start with properly sized grips. Most new golfers default to standard size grips, but here’s a rule of thumb for male golfers: if your glove size is medium/large or larger, you should consider using Midsize Grips.

Grips that are too small force you to squeeze harder, creating unnecessary tension in your wrists, hands, and forearms. This tension can directly impact your swing and control.

Old, slippery grips are another problem. You want grips that are firm but also nice and tacky, giving you confidence in your hold without the need for extra pressure.
