With the club off the ground, hold the handle of the club 1/2 inch from the butt end with your target hand in a handshake-like position diagonal with the club. b. Then, place rear hand on the club below your target hand, but on top of your target thumb. The target thumb fits in the lifeline of the rear hand. Checkpoint: (Palm of rear hand should be to target.) c. The back of the target hand and the palm of the rear hand should point in the same direction. Checkpoint: The toe of the club should point straight up. Club/Hands in-line V’s to chin or slightly to rear side of chin. No gaps between thumbs and index fingers. Club in fingers, not palm. Coaching Suggestions Remind athletes to keep clubs down, no swing yet. Have athletes handshake the club with the left hand only to determine proper club position. Encourage the athletes to use ten-finger grip first. Have athletes assume the proper stance and also grip the club. The hands hinge or bend vertically to properly position the golf club and for added speed. 29
