In this guide from Handsy Golf, learn how to refine your golf grip technique inspired by Rory McIlroy. The video demonstrates how creating a secure pinch between the trail thumb and index finger delivers superior clubface awareness and swing consistency.

• Position the trail hand so the thumb and index finger create a trigger-like pinch on the handle.
• Maintain light wrist tension while keeping firm contact at the pinch pressure point.
• Align the grip pressure points correctly to prevent unwanted clubface twisting at impact.
