In this segment I'm going to talk about the importance of the left hand grip and how many
knuckles you could see at address. There's a saying that the number one important thing
in the world is food. Number two is water and number three, the position of the left
hand grip. You can't believe the influence of the left hand grip on the club and this
is why. Because since you're a righty, your right hand, right arm and right side is going
to do so much. It's going to do so much, your right side. Your left side, your weaker side,
and if you don't believe it's weaker, if you're a right hander, try throwing a ball lefty,
see how far it goes. It's a lot weaker. You at least have to start it out in a position
where it's natural and that might be in the same position as your arm hangs. Your arm
might hang like this where you see four knuckles, it might hang a little more like this, or
like this. If you don't believe the importance of the left hand grip, hold the club so that
you see one knuckle and use your swing. Then hold the club with two knuckles and hit. Then
with three knuckles. Then with four knuckles. You're going to see the ball going completely
different directions. Experiment with that left hand grip. The left hand grip, next to
food and water, is possibly the most important thing in the world. Experiment with that left
hand grip.
