What do people mean when they talk about club head feel in the golf swing? Now, club head feel in the golf swing is the point of actually when you strike the ball and the sensation you get when the vibrations roll up into your hands. There can be good feelings, but there can also be bad feelings as well. What else it tends that happens through the point of impact. If you strike the ball from the toe, the clubface will twist, just ever so slightly, and as the clubface twists, then the shaft will twist and the grip will twist as well. And I think actually it finishes and -- actually it finishes through impact and it carries on through the throw swing, that of shaking and that twisting of toe will continue. And that’s what the vibrations are, center of the club and that’s what the bad feelings will be in the hands. Is it going to say from the heel, it sends vibrations of the shaft into the grip and causes a nasty sensation in the fingers? If you hit the ball out of the thin, so the right of the bottom of the club, especially in the winter month that will cause very -- very painful vibrations of the shaft. Now, good club head feel, is actually a lack of vibration, a good shot which is truck out at the middle of the club, is dampened as far as the feel and the shaft and the grip is concerned.

So out of the toe and the heel, if they start to be struck from that position, the club will start to actually twist and vibrate, when the ball is struck from the center of the club, that’s when the vibrations are dampened. So a good club head feel, is actually a lack of vibrations, not an increase in vibrations. Now this is the way to actually tell if you’re striking it out of the middle of the club, you just use some face tape. So, an actual bit of a tape that can be put across the club face to actually see where you are striking the ball. If you strike it at the toe and you get the sensation of a bad feeling, you can check the face tape, check where it’s impacted and then relate it back to your actual ball strike. Hitting a few of these will actually give you an indication of what feels best, and is always invariably a ball which is struck right out at the center of the club. So when people talk about club feel, that’s what they are talking about it’s not the actual excessive vibrations, it’s the less the -- well, the diminishment of vibrations when they ball is struck at the center of the face. But if you are curious of how to really feel to strike, and where you are hitting the ball out of face, stick a bit face tape on that or a little bit talcum powder on the ball which will leave the residue on the club face and you will get the grip club feel in no time at all.
