Fix your golf grip with a ruler

Erika Larkin from True Swing demonstrates how to use a standard ruler to quickly correct an overly strong or weak golf grip. Positioned with the thin edge facing upward, the ruler serves as a clear reference point to center your thumbs and seal the Vs of your hands. This simple drill eliminates early swing compensations by ensuring a square clubface and relaxed alignment at address.

• Hold a ruler with the thin edge pointing straight up to serve as your grip alignment guide.
• Center both thumbs straight down the top edge of the ruler to ensure a neutral grip.
• Seal the Vs formed by your thumb and forefinger to eliminate excess grip tension and wrist twisting.
• Fixing your grip before starting the swing prevents unnecessary face-angle compensations during the motion.
