Split Grip Golf Swing
Question
I have been trying a split grip golf swing.It is working pretty good.Do you know any golfers who use this swing,and do you need longer clubs?
Answer
Richard,
I apologize for being so tardy in responding to your question. I was away all this past week for the holiday.
The split grip is a great drill to help a player get the club on plane and then the feel of releasing the club through impact. If I were you I would practice using the split grip and let it work on the plane and release aspect but I don't think I would play that way except as a practice drill. And, no, I wouldn't go out and buy longer clubs to compensate for having a lower right hand on the club (if you are right handed).
Good luck.
Sincerely,
Paul Dolman
