Three-time Major champion Padraig Harrington demonstrates why the grip is the most important connection to the golf club. He explains that gripping in the fingers rather than the palms is essential for clubface control and speed, offering drills like the 'Finger Only Waggle' and a clever towel trick to help golfers transition to a more orthodox, powerful hold.

Always grip the club in your fingers first, never starting with the palm.
Avoid setting your grip while the clubhead is resting on the ground, as this encourages a palm-biased grip.
The 'V' formed by the thumb and forefinger should point generally between your chin and right shoulder.
Your hands are the only part of the body that truly knows where the clubface is located.
When changing your grip, practice in front of a TV or without a ball first to build muscle memory.
