Step 4: Downswing Drops in the Slot with Right Palm DownĪs the downswing starts, the right arm and shoulder simply drop straight down as the feet press firmly into the ground and the knees make a slight lateral shift. If the opposite is true, club resting on the thumb and palm facing the player, then the clubface will be too open and casting is inevitable on the downswing. Also the right palm will slightly face away from the player to the right. The weight of the shaft should be resting on the trigger finger, not the thumb. Tray of dishes at top of swingĪ couple of key points must be noted in this top position. It simply folds and points toward the ground as the right palm faces the sky in the classic “waiters’ tray” position at the top.

Start with a relatively strong left hand grip in which the “V” of the left hand points to the right shoulder, but place the right hand so it covers the left thumb in a more neutral overall position. Step 1: Right Hand Golf Grip – Accent the Trigger Fingerįor the right-handed golfer who desires to strike iron shots with a piercing flight and get a divot after the ball, it is imperative to create the right grip positions and consequent wrist positions.
