Thanks Steve. Good explanation on what the V does. That is to confused most players.
Like your idea that the left thumb is meant to provide support at the top and keeps it square.

I’m a confused beginner lady golfer. I use the interlocking grip and I know I feel stronger with my right arm controlling my action in hitting the golf ball. Should I convert to the overlapping grip and think more along the lines of swinging the golf club to hit the ball?

Steve,
Last time I checked you are backwards. In your video you have your hands in your “hook position” which actually promotes a fade by not allowing the hands and arms to rotate at impact to square or slightly closed. Same with “your fade” grip, this grip promotes a hook! If you do have the grip to strong you may push the ball, but your fade grip definitely promotes a hook. I mean last time I read the PGA Teaching Manual it did.

I teach the game in the U.K.I dont like to bad mouth other coaches but why so manny complications?He is a good coach but so manny points when the pupil isn’t with u is going to lead to problems.

You’re a fantastic golf instructor and student of the game.

It’s great to see someone who’s so passionate about the swing that he’s willing to spend time to actually think things through in a rational manner, rather than regurgitate the common teachings of the time.

I look forward to more videos from you and insights on the swing.
