Wyndham Clark, a professional golfer, uses a standard overlapping grip, also known as the Vardon grip or interlocking grip. This is the most common grip used by golfers and provides a balanced and secure connection between the hands and the club.

To achieve the standard overlapping grip, follow these steps:

  1. Take your lead hand (left hand for right-handed golfers) and place the grip diagonally across the base of your fingers. The club should rest at the base of your pinky finger and the pad of your palm.
  2. Close your hand around the grip, wrapping your fingers comfortably but firmly around the club. The thumb should be positioned slightly to the right of the center of the grip (for right-handed golfers).
  3. Extend your lead thumb down the shaft of the club. The thumb should be slightly to the right of the centerline of the grip (for right-handed golfers), providing stability and control.
  4. Take your trail hand (right hand for right-handed golfers) and place it below your lead hand on the club, overlapping the little finger of your lead hand with the index finger of your trail hand.
  5. Close your trail hand around the grip, ensuring a comfortable and secure hold. The thumb of your trail hand should rest in the lifeline of your lead hand.
  6. Align your hands so that the “V” formed by your thumb and index finger on each hand points toward your trail shoulder (for right-handed golfers, it will point to the right shoulder).

Remember to maintain a relaxed grip pressure, neither too tight nor too loose, throughout your swing. A balanced and consistent grip, such as the standard overlapping grip, can help provide control, stability, and better clubface control during your golf swing.

It's important to note that individual preferences may vary, and golfers may choose different grip styles that work best for their game. It's always a good idea to work with a qualified golf instructor who can assess your swing and provide personalized grip recommendations.

Wyndham uses a modified claw putting grip. The claw grip is a variation of the traditional putting grip that can provide stability and control during the putting stroke.

To achieve the modified claw putting grip, follow these steps:

  1. Take your lead hand (left hand for right-handed golfers) and place it on the grip of the putter. Instead of wrapping your fingers around the grip, rest the grip against the palm of your lead hand, near the base of your fingers.
  2. Extend your lead thumb down the front of the putter grip. The thumb should be positioned in a slightly downward pointing angle.
  3. Take your trail hand (right hand for right-handed golfers) and place it below your lead hand on the putter grip. The grip should rest against the base of your palm and the inside of your index finger.
  4. Close your trail hand around the grip, ensuring a comfortable and secure hold. The fingers of your trail hand should lightly rest on the grip, with the index finger extended down the grip.
  5. Position your trail hand's index finger so that it touches the grip but doesn't wrap around it fully. This is the “claw” element of the grip, as the extended index finger provides stability and control.

The modified claw putting grip is designed to promote a consistent and stable putting stroke. The lead hand's palm against the grip helps minimize wrist movement, while the trail hand's extended index finger provides added control and stability.

It's important to note that putting grips can vary among golfers, and what works for one player may not work for another. It's always a good idea to experiment with different grips and find the one that feels most comfortable and effective for you. Working with a qualified golf instructor can provide valuable guidance and help you find the putting grip that suits your stroke and style.
