I want you want to understand how control of the handle the grip end of the golf club can really help you control the club head. Obviously we need the club head traveling in the right path and direction as it hits the golf ball, but if you understand where the handle is pointing its really going to help you. Now if you haven't got a laser beam you can just do a simple thing with a tee peg or I'm just using a cane here. I'm going to insert it in the end of the club here and what you'll notice when I swing back in a perfect world the club would be facing back parallel to my target, but if I've got tendencies where I for example lift the golf club without turning and lay little buffers we call it. Notice where the handles pointing now is pointing out over here way over this target line unfortunately from here that means to us I said before the club head follows the handle of the handles pointing this way the club head is now going to come out and over.
Notice where the handles pointing way left to the target I'm going to cut across that golf ball and get that real nasty slice. Conversely you may fall into the other camp where you bring the club inside and across you crossing the line as we call it the wrist maybe a bit cupy the right wrist an elbow flying out here notice where the handles pointing now over here so the club head is now following the handle the clubs way inside club head way behind me. This is going to deliver the blow way off to the right unless I take some remedial action and twist it out. So what we really want to do and get the feel of is where that club head tracking where the handles pointing along the target line or the base line here of the plane falling up. Notice where it would be pointing now if I can get the handle trailing back down pointing at the object I'm going to hit then parallel to it now through. I know from here I'm going to be able to really develop a golf swing this moving the club on good lines my swing geometry the basics of my swing there are going to be the right shape, and if the ball gets in the way of the golf club that's traveling in the right shape with a half decent grip believe me you're going to start seeing a lot more consistency with you shots.
