Place your gloved hand to the side of the grip, the badge looking broadly at your target. Push your knuckles towards your target to create a slight kink in the wrist. Allow your fingers to curl around. Your thumb pointing down to the crook of your index finger.
2. Heel pad to index crease

That subtle wrist kink builds a neat handle-sized zone between the glove’s heel pad and the little finger. Slot the grip into that zone, under the heel, and angle the handle so it runs against the main crease of the index finger. Fold the fingers around the grip.
3. Form a question mark

Now place your lower hand to the side of the grip, ensuring the palm of the hand is looking at your target. Create a question mark-like shape with the index finger; this arranges the fingers ideally for how they need to go on the club. Learn more from Today’s Golfer.
