Todd Graves breaks down proper golf grip pressure using the 'Rod' technique from the Single Plane Swing system inspired by Moe Norman. By maintaining light pressure in the trail hand and letting the lead hand control the movement, golfers can unlock effortless leverage and swing speed at any age.
Avoid squeezing the club tightly for power; tension destroys natural leverage and swing speed.

Engage the trail hand with a feel similar to skipping a stone to maintain natural wrist structure.
Lighter grip pressure allows proper wrist hinge and effortless speed throughout the golf swing.
