If you are new to golf and unsure of how to grip a golf club, here are some beginner tips to get you started.
First Grip Method: Overlapping Grip
Place your left hand about 2 centimeters from the end of the club grip, with your fingers towards the front.
Position the club between the first knuckle of your left middle finger and the intersection of your pinky finger and palm.
Avoid placing the club completely in your palm, as this can result in loss of power during your swing.
Place your right pinky finger over your left middle finger, with the first knuckle of your right middle finger and your thumb gripping the club.
Be careful not to squeeze the club too tightly with your thumb, as this can lead to excessive hand force and a right-to-left ball flight.
Second Grip Method: Interlocking Grip
Place your left hand about 2 centimeters from the end of the club grip, with your fingers towards the front.
Position the club between the first knuckle of your left middle finger and the intersection of your pinky finger and palm.
