Tested Golf Psychology Tips That Work!
I've said it many times. One of the most common causes of short distance is over-tightness in your grip.
As pro John Daly said, "I'll see guys squeezing a club like they were trying to wring out a dishrag."
A tight grip reduces your back swing, which reduces your distance. Your tight hands also creates poor wrist action, which inhibits your power even more.
Tension in your hands is one of the easiest ways to guarantee you'll be inconsistent on the golf course. U.S. Open Champion Jim Furyk has two remedies: the double interlocking group or the double overlapping grip.
With the double overlapping grip, you wrap the last two fingers of your right hand over the index and middle fingers of your left hand.
With the double interlocking grip, you interlock the index finger of your left hand and the last two fingers of your right hand.
At this point you're wondering where the golf psychology part comes in. After all, the golf grip is not golf psychology.
Or is it?
Here's the deal.
When you are frustrated or anxious out there, telling yourself to relax rarely does the trick. Your mind is all worked up. So your body follows suit.
A new golf grip will naturally reduce tension in your hands without you trying to relax yourself deliberately. It will also get your mind off your last shot by giving you something constructive to try on the next one.
And no matter which grip you use, here's the key, courtesy of Steve Bosdosh, Golf Magazine top 100 Teacher: Hold the handle of your club more in your finders. Make an athletic, tension-free motion without concern for the outcome.
When you use your golf grip as a playground, your golf psychology will start to fall into place. Your golf mental game will help you win.
