Don't make this golf grip mistake

Handsy Golf explains a common grip mistake regarding the placement of the trail hand. By ensuring the trail palm connects specifically with the lead thumb knuckle, golfers can more effectively channel force into the club handle and achieve a proper pivoting action.

• The 'connection point' of the grip should be the trail palm against the lead thumb knuckle.
• Placing the trail hand too high prevents the 'meat' of the hand from applying force to the side of the handle.
• Correct hand connection allows for a better pivoting action and more efficient transfer of energy into the club.
