Putting Grip Tip by PGA Teaching Pro Ged Walters

When it comes to gripping the putter. Although when we watched the golf on the TV, we see numerous different ways of how to do it. There are a couple of commonalities that we need to think about. Um, and one of them is making sure that we don't get too wristy with our putting stroke. So where we place the hands on the grip itself becomes really crucial.

Now, whether or not your left hand is your top hand, or whether it's the bottom hand, whether it's in the middle of the grip or top of the grip, that's entirely up to you. But what we really want to do is we want to make sure that we get the grip to try and ride through the middle of the palm of the hand, like so. So from that point there, my wrist can move a little bit so I can generate a little bit of speed through the head, but it's going to be much more difficult than if I was holding it there and getting really wristty. So I'm going to be able to control the amount of the wrist movements.
