Message: [QUOTE="Zissou, post: 3942423, member: 7920"] My grip advice would be firm with the left hand. This is in the fingers and palm, but not in the wrist or forearm. A neutral grip has the “Vs” of your thumb pointing to your shoulders, up your arms. Left V to left shoulder, Right V to right shoulder. A “strong” grip rotates the left hand “a little” so the left V is to your chin or right ear. This can help cure a slice by encouraging the inside out motion. We risk putting too much on the plate though, and making things complicated! Keep it simple! If Jake can tick that 2nd Tee he has developed the inside-out swing. Closing the stance can help: close both the feet and hips. Shortening the swing can help. Keeping the right elbow in can help. A “strong grip” can help (firm in the left hand, slightly rotating the V to the right ear). I disagree that “too firm” a left hand grip is a big problem for many, unless that translates to a stiff wrist and forearm. [/QUOTE]
