OMG This grip method is the greatest piece of advice I have ever seen. I watched it on Wednesday and took it to the course on Thursday and knocked 10 shots off the round. When you use the technique described the grip created feels so natural and hence the grip stays right and the balls sails down the course. Thank you so much

Hi Danny, since 6 years, I watch them all: Andy & Piers, Crossfield, Shiels, Finch, Ryan, Hendriksen, Fryer... Since 2015 I've seen hundrets or even more golf videos from these great guys. But I must say, your explanations, your videos still open my eyes, again and again. Thank you so much for your superb videos! Best regards from Germany!

Danny Maude, makes complicated issues into a simple way to understand. great way of communication. Enjoyed.

Tried this on the course today... It made an incredible difference...I realised I was tucking my lead hand under too much, every drive and most fairway woods and approach shots on line, no slice. Thanks so much Danny, a huge impact on my game today.

This is for real! Coming back to this video a month after seeing it to say this 100% changed my consistency issues and I now make solid contact 95% of the time where I was at 60-70% before. Thank you man! Keep up the good work I tell everyone about your channel. For anyone who has really good hand eye and is maybe converting from baseball to golf and you think you're doing everything right but are struggling with consistency try this! 💯

Great video as always. I've played for many years and whilst most of what you cover is not new to me, the superb manner in which you describe everything is extremely helpful to both mature and new golfers. I regularly enjoy your golf videos but this is the first that I had to comment on. Thanks again

I started playing golf in 1974 (not quite 30), not so long after that I read Ben Hogan's book "The Modern Fundamentals of Golf". The first chapter is "The Grip", I have used this method since then. I use the Vardon way to join the hands. I tried the interlock for a while because I read somewhere that "The Golden Bear" used that and decided it wasn't for me. Another KZfaq instructor talks about 'Powerless Arms" and 'Free hinging wrists" . In the current group of KZfaq instructors, I have Danny Maude as my preferred choice. I send your advice to a few of my fellows who (like me) are struggling with the loss of distance or accuracy. Keep up the good work.

Danny that was one of the best explanations of managing your golf grip. It was really helpful in describing how you get the club into your fingers and especially the grip pressure that is unique to each player and how you control your driver. Thank you, I will take this to the practice range and hopefully to the course!

Danny thank you for providing us the tools, tips, and suggestions to continue to improve our game. You put out extremely well produced video clips and your hard work and thorough yet simplified instruction is greatly appreciated. For love of the game - cheers!

Danny - I turned my brother onto your videos and he's hooked! He's 59 and has lost a lot of power in the past few years - and his short game collapsed. After a couple of months of watching your vids he's game is noticeably improved - and he's having way more fun. Thanks!

Best grip video I’ve had the privilege of watching. Danny, you have a fantastic method in providing instruction that makes sense to the average joe. Please keep the videos coming!

I really appreciated this fundamental discussion of grip. I’m in the midst of changing my swing path and never thought to build those changes up from a sound grip.

Hi Danny, I changed my grip over a year ago out of frustration of hooking left. I went from interlock grip to all fingers on the club. The difference was instant. I counted each shot to make sure it wasn't a fluke. Still using the same grip. Thanks again for the content and your time to provide great video information. Cheers

Tiger said the hands are most important because they are how you interface with the club. Grip changes are the quickest fix to any swing imo, great lesson. I suffer from getting too strong of a grip sometimes so I am always having to check this, I finally learned to just build it into my pre-shot routine so i don't have to worry about it. In terms of pressure, my instructor told me to grip with intension, basically what you are saying, and also to imagine you were wringing the water out of a towel with your fingers. For the drive the towel is soaked and for the wedges it is just barely wet. This really has helped me. Now I just have to worry about path issues :)

took a 10 year hiatus (kids and life do that lol), and completely lost the feeling, not to mention 'feeling lost' when it came to the mechanics. started watching your vids for a couple of months and must say the ones on grip have made a huge difference (for the better, meaning I am almost ready to break 90 and get back to the feeling I had playing in low 80's before I 'left'!). many thanks Danny!

Thanks Danny! Hit about 180 balls at the range today,. My practice was going so well I didn’t want stop, despite it being 96 and feeling like 106 here in Chicago. Excellent instruction ✌🏻

Again, Danny with the save. After fixing my iron shot, he’s now done it again and fixed my driver. Your tips and tricks have fixed my slice and have given my driver a more consistent shot. The biggest takeaway that helped my driver was the hand grip. By following the natural placements of specifically my right hand, I’m able to keep the pendulum swing and keep my left and right arms connected to my body as I swing. For both hands, I aim to keep them aiming inwards and being able to see two knuckles on both hands. By doing this, it naturally keeps my arms arms in position. For my left arm, it’s keeping super straight without me having to force or be in an uncomfortable motion. You are the god of golf sent down here to help us mere mortals!

Great tips! I haven't played much golf in the last 10 years, but now that I'm getting back into it, I have found myself making these very mistakes and having a terrible slice. A friend gave me similar pointers and adjustments and it made a huge difference, especially after fixing my elbow position as you also showed. I was also bad at getting the club face square to the ball. I tend to rest the club on the ground while getting my grip and that natural sitting state of the club puts the face in the open position. My buddy is the only person who has ever pointed that out to me. When he would "square" me up, it would look more closed to me, but that's the way it suppose to be apparently.

Danny ,absolutely on the button, my pal changed my grip to what you have just said. Instead of losing 20 yards to a slice I've gained 20 yards in distance 👍😁

Came by this instructional video quite by accident. I had just looked up how not to top a three wood stumbled on and watched this video. I can not believe how this transformed my entire iron line up! Four holes in a poor drive and thinking well i will get this around the green somewhere. Ten consecutive pars later I still cant believe it. This set up reallly encourages you to grip and relax, which really lead to a to some of the best ballstriking throughout my line up (4-G). I was amazed at how well the long irons preformed after setting up and gripping per this instruction. I kept waiting for the wheels to fall off and they really never did. The approach and set up seemed to easy to be true, but it seems to work well for me. Thanks So Much!!!!

I have been following and watching your videos for some time now. These are outstanding instructional aids. And I recently found this video. When I first started golfing, a little over 20 years ago, I would link the pinky of my trail (lower) hand with the index finger of my lead (higher) hand. And I have done so since then. I did not play a lot of golf - and some summers I would not play at all. This year, I have started to play golf more regularly with the intent to improve my game so that I can enjoy it as I get older (and I came to the sport in my early 30s). Recently, I started experiencing some pain with the pinky of my trail hand, so I have stopped interlocking my pinky and index finger. The change has not appeared to adversely affect my drives, but time will tell.

tried this on the course, wow what a difference and feels so natural. Compressing irons like never before.

Top man Danny you explain everything in simplistic terms. I watch all your videos. I think the grip is key to everything. Love when you have your dad with you, probably because we are of a similar age. You consistently help all golfers. Keep it going. Thank you.

Such a key video and an area that other teachers neglect a lot I think. So many of my issues restarting the game after many years off were due to grip. Thanks v much Danny.

A refreshing ,different & very helpful way of checking you are holding the club correctly. I think Danny would be able to come up with a new way to blow your nose. I think he will never run out of new ideas on how to help golfers. Renewed thanks for all your help. Earlier in the Facebook message where you wearing the top inside out? The writing was all back to front. Will all your followers wear their tops inside out to copy you in the hope of gaining accuracy or a few extra yards. Interesting to know how Laura is the person who arranges things for you. Enjoy your weekend with your lovely family. You have got your priorities right. It's worth working hard so you can spend great time with them.

This tip changed my golfing story. Today every drive went straight, so did all my fairway shots, my friends were amazed, I am so happy. My drives used to go straight then veer left once they hit the ground - no more! I am a left handed high handicap older golfer, I now look forward to playing instead of dreading my drives.

Absolutely perfect 😍👍👍👍👍. I Suffer with a big slice, tried all sorts, nothing worked. Did this today and 0, zero, nada slices today. Gives you such confidence off the tee. Still need to improve my distance but small steps eh 😀 Cheers Danny.

You rock Danny! As someone new to the game and figuratively slashing my way through the jungle of how to hit a golf ball, you are like an expert guide to show the way. I'm making great progress thanks to your videos and I watch them over and over. You are a godsend as I feel that I'm on the right track. Thanks!!!

I watched this video last night after playing 9 holes and hooking almost every shot. I cant believe its taken me X amount of years to realise my strong grip is the problem! I followed all the steps from this video during a session at the range today and out of 50 balls I hit 0 hooks! Some offline to the right now and even a little fade here and there but this advice has worked wonders! Thanks Danny, brilliant lesson.

Great lesson as always. I have been working on the grip specifically in the past week. Much of what you covered here is what I am working on. Can definitely say the strikes are more consistent and the ball is going farther with what seems much less "effort feel". The great thing, is once this is nailed down, the swing is effortless in "feel".

Spot on. Two weeks ago, I suddenly couldn't get a good ball strike or get off the tee. I ran into my instructor one day on the range and after watching one swing, his quick observation was that my left hand was weakening causing the club face to open at the top. Simple grip change and I shot my best round of the year that day. Keep on...love your lessons!

Danny being informative and very clear and encouraging as per usual. After COVID blooming restrictions I’m straight back to the drawing board again … so I’m back to your beginner and basic instructions on grip, stance, shoulders etc etc so thank you once again Danny. I’m looking forward to cooler weather here in South Africa and getting back out there with my 9 hole ladies group again ⛳️

Hi Danny. As it happens, I was looking at one of your earlier videos about the grip a couple of weeks ago, and followed your advice. It has made a huge difference, not only to ball direction, but to the actual strike too. Thanks again.

Brilliant! I tried technique to force my body into golf, your simple explanations pull me back into balancing technique and feel.

hi danny. i know you read these and just wanted to say that despite having taken a few years you have become quite telegenic and polished and i think you've sorta reached the next level with your videos. i can feel the poise coming through my laptop here. good work man keep it up.

Danny, I wish I had someone with your information 40 years ago when I started golfing. I've made more progress in two years than in all my golf history. Thank you! David

Danny your videos have helped this 61 year old to be able to hit it long and accurate. Thank you.

Amazing how we can overlook the basic building blocks sometimes. Thanks for the brilliant video!

This is by far the best grip explanation to date. I have tried everything and yes I am doing better but still having issue. They way you explained letting your arms hang is the best way of me seeing what I was doing wrong. Please send this threw the email sheet so I can have with me all the time. Thank you so much

Hi Danny, Thanks to that bloody virus, I have had time to sit down and read and try some of the principles advocated in Ben Hogan's Five Lessons. An interesting point BH made was with regards to the right thumb and index finger being 'swing killers' if they grip the club too tightly. Over the last three days or so, I've been getting used to the grip preferred by BH and I have to say, it is beginning to feel more natural and a lot less effort than my previous grip. From what I could see, Your approach to establishing the grip on the club seems to establish this exact same principle but in a 'squarer' way, that is resting the club on the ground and using gravity to sort out the club position in ones hands. Having tried your tip, the end position of my hands on the club was virtually identical to what I was 'feeling' following BH book. Your tip does remove the tendency for any unnatural 'wrist-twists' though. Can't wait to try this out on a course....once my COVID isolation has passed. Keep up the good work Tom J

Grip is so important to hitting straight shots. Your video is excellent information, and it works. I am hitting more fairways, and feeling like I can better control the accuracy of my drives. Golf is fun again. Thank you, Danny!

I have limited movement in my right wrist and took up golf 6 years ago age 60. Despite many lessons I never seemed to get a grip that feels comfortable and sorts my hooky shots. This video has finally helped get me feeling far more "natural" and I am now getting the clubhead square at impact, it's a revelation. thank you Danny.

Had a lesson in Dubai in February with a pro who told me I had a problem with my grip, never been assured in gripping since and seen my shots go left, right, high and low off the tee. Thanks Danny for this easy to understand and implement teaching. Will try it out later today and hopefully cut out the stupid shots.

I went to the driving range and hit 10 balls my way and 10 balls Danny’s way. What a huge difference! The balls were going high and straight using Danny’s tip. Thank u Danny. I’m gonna keep working on it.

Thanks Danny for this tip, I changed my grip to what you suggested and found I was hitting it Straight from the first drive where I was aiming and my distance was a little better, on the 9th hole Par5 I dropped my first Eagle from 135yds up hill 9 iron, at my local course that day due to the change in where I held the club in my hand. Thanks! I look forward to trying out other lesson tips.

I use interlocking grip but being a senior I have lost so much distance. I have tried the non interlocking and it just doesn't feel right....guess I just need to practice it more. Really enjoy your instruction videos....keep them coming.

Thanks Danny I never thought of changing from overlocking to all fngers on the club as a senior and I am actually off to the range right now so perfect timing. And with lots of notes from your many other videos.

Danny, mate what a legend. Focused on this today at the range literally eradicated my slice and could shape shots left and right on demand, just based on the grip! I always thought it was my swing that was off, turns out was just the grip! Keep up the simple not over complicated tips! Loving your content!

Thanks Danny. Just getting back into the game after a 12 yr layoff. Was struggling until i watched this video. Small change, big result. Hitting my driver more consistent and striking my irons a lot better. Thanks again.

Just tried this on the range. Amazing how just letting my arms hang naturally as I grip the club made a massive difference. Strike the ball much better, and straighter. Thanks again for a cracking tip. 👍👍👍

He is so right guys!! I've been watching this dude here about 4 months I knew how to hit as he said all them negative strikes but Danny got me on this one video when he said one thousand and one I wasn't staying in there long enuff now this The Grip I've been holding my driver 3 maybe 240 off the tee. so I put one thousand and one together and now I have to play alone !!! Thanks Danny for these videos they helped me shot 82 then came back shot 80 friend got mad I didn't finished my hole so I gave me a boggie on last hole so 85 it was . what if I birdie it 83

The driver grip is definitely one of my more overlooked, yet very perplexed way of trying to ensure I have consistency, and Step 1 is cash money here! I paused the video, grabbed my driver and was awe-struck how simple, consistent, feel, and how good it looked. Did some slow upswing and downswings of all shapes and manner, and found how the face gets squared when I do a proper swing. The power pointer in number 2 is definitely something I need to try. Not just the fingers interlocking, but definitely want to see how much power I can get from having all ten fingers freely gripping. Number 3....haven't tried, but will need to practice. Maybe it's more natural than I thought. I'm hoping it's something I unconsciously do and therefore don't need to relearn. Thanks Danny!

I figured you'd have a good video on the grip. I was messing with a single plane swing for a few weeks and adjusted my grip to have my trail arm come up more under the club. I guess I did it long enough for it to become a habit. Lately after abandoning the SPS I started to hit everything with a draw. Going to check this today using my indoor simulator. Also, I wanted to comment on the ten finger grip. Even though I am a strong senior golfer and still lift weights two or three times a week, I have a lot of weakness and pain in my hands, probably some early onset arthritis I inherited from my father. The ten finger grip along with some larger grips on my clubs to fit my gorilla size hands, has really helped me to get a much more secure grip on the club again. Definitely two things to consider for anyone struggling to get a solid grip. Good stuff as usual sir.

Best basic , instruction on grip based on body mechanics and influence on your strike!! The right grip pressure depending on club speed as well as the position of right elbow are two gems from this video..Thank you, !!.

Swung so much better yesterday after watching this tutorial Danny. Thank you so much. I was a slicer before but now got more direction

Wow Danny! This might be the most valuable online lesson I've ever had! #3 is absolutely brilliant. Everyone should re-watch 6:55 - 7:10 again! To compensate for my tendency to snatch the club inside, I got into a bad habit of push my hands out at the start. Big problem! It internally rotates the trail shoulder and leads to serious shoulder pain when you swing hard down to the ball from that position on top. This grip tip helped me to achieve proper takeaway while allowing for a small external rotation of the trail shoulder. Bingo! Shallower downswing path, arms in front of the body, and a much better position in the hitting zone. All with a pain free swing! Thank you!

Thanks Danny . I was waiting for you to hitting straight . Nice tip see if is my grip when I practice on the driving range.

Hands down, definitely the best video I have ever watched on the grip. Thanks for sharing this info.

I played today and was surprised to see how much of a strong grip I have with this technique. Ball flight was higher and straighter. Thank you sir.

Yes Danny, in case you're wondering, I do come to all your videos no matter how old cuz of these hidden golden nuggets of information! Cheers!

I know this an old video and I’m not sure how I stumbled on it. But I’m glad I did. I grip it in my fingers but like many books and videos I turn my left hand down to grip it in the fingers then I have to tinker to get it all “square” this is great and simple. Great video as always

Danny, This little change has unbelievable positive impact on my consistency. Thanks Miro

Danny thank you for this tip, went out tonight and my driving was awesome, I appreciate the tip

Never thought to check my trail arm elbow position...it was a great result. Love your tips. Thanks Danny

Thank you so much Danny with this grip change I hit my first hole your grip input just makes sense and works once again thank you!!!!!!!!

I've had an issue where putting the right hand on the club threw my shoulders out alignment. Watched this video last night and tried the tips out this morning. Really made a difference to the accuracy of my shots - very few of the normal pulls or slices. Thanks for another great vid!

I recently tidied up my grip on the lines you have recommended and agree that it has made a big difference to my accuracy. However I still need some distance so will try the other tips you have suggested. It’s a never ending journey!

Another great lesson Danny. The tip of adjusting the grip strength depending on the club speed needed should really help me. I find myself gorilla gripping all my clubs too much a lot if times which leads to slicing. Can't wait to try it at the range!

Danny - THANK YOU! This video helped me so much! Just after watching I played and incorporated 3 of the tips in the video and it has corrected my over-grip and greatly straightened my hits! Game changer!! cheers! BC.

fantastic suggestion to improve the grip, I have been struggling with it for 40 years but no one had ever shown me so well how to position my hands, with this little trick of bending down when holding the iron and then lying down by having the grip readjusted on the fingers .... thanks a lot and I hope it can finally serve me!🔝🔝⛳️

Hi Danny, last week I was at the driving range, in the bay next to me were two guys trying very had to hit the ball in the air, speaking to them they had just stated golf, I recommended they look on KZfaq for your videos, as you have taught me so much

I watch this video every night really enjoy it, it has helped me a lot so far. Thank you so much

Great start to Saturday cheers Danny

Hi Danny - Best grip video I've seen, I been juggling with mine for ages, this looks simple to repeat I think that's the answer . Many Thanks Garry B in Manchester UK

my goodness...i once heard that golf is not that difficult and you shouldn't complicate everything. Then why do you explain the most unbelievable things every week? And then so outrageously good, plausible and easy to understand. Golf is a damn difficult puzzle that can be solved quite easily if you have the right coach.

Danny "Maudelism" ... wonderfully simple explanation and easy to follow tips. Brilliant instruction.

Awesome video. I have been working on this Danny. Each time. I am striking the ball more solid on my long irons and woods.

Once again a great lesson given with authority. Like many others, I have watched endless coaching videos, NON explain simple techniques that actually work better than you.

I somehow managed - devolved perhaps - to wreck my driver grip by combing both bad habits you call out here. Too many knuckles on the left (lead) hand, too far under on the right (trail) hand. Wow. Played 18 at my local course today (unofficial 15 HDCP) and did NOT miss a fairway with driver. Not once! Many satisfied internal giggling! I'll split my day's winnings with you. Many thanks for the grip "intervention." I'm curious and mildly embarrassed how the heck my grip got to where it was! No worries now, my friend!

Thanks for all the help last year at this time i was averaging 150 -170 driver given only been golfing 2 years but thanks for your simple lessons iv taken your videos to the range know i’m upwards of 230-250 almost a hole 100 yards down the fair way thanks Danny ..Alvin in Montana

Danny this may be your best video. People he has good ones but this one here DEAD ON POINT I WISH I Could MEET DANNY SHOW HIM MY SWING AND I DONT PLAY ALOT OVER THE ROAD DRIVER AND and I warm up nice swing as he say and shot 85 my chip game good my putting got better I had to trust it like he said Great job Danny!!

Thank you so much Danny, you are the man who is my first golf coach I think. Your explanation is simple and clear, how beautiful it is!

This video is helping in lot .managing those hooks . This has encouraged me to visit the basics Thanks for this video

Right arm is the one I struggle explaining to my girlfriend. She was a great table tennis player back in the day. I asked her to try hitting a forehand smash without a table tennis bat and imagine her palm is the bat..... all of a sudden, there's the crease of the elbow for all to see. 😀. Cheers DM. Great explanation of the grip. 👍👍👍

Hi Danny. Thank you again for the video. Ben Hogan said in his book “Five Lessons,” that the left hand V should point to the Right Eye, and the Right Hand V to the Chin. Do you agree? There are so many golf tips out there that it has many brains swirling in confusion. I am rebuilding my swing from the ground up….like learning golf all over again and having fun.

I just started golf last summer. Played 3 rounds of golf, and now I just finished my 3rd round for this summer, just trying the effortless “swing” not adding any power or so yet. And I played the best golf so far. Down on 24 hcp. But I have no idea of how far I hit each club or around the green. I’m hoping to learn more about that now and keep lowering my score! 🙌 you vids have improved my golf a lot!!

Cheers Danny. Had some sporadic drives yesterday mixing between huge slice to heavy hooks. Will definitely give this a go seems so easy and logical. Think I’m guilty of constantly overthinking it. Thanks for making golf look so easy. Just wish it was 😂

Thanks Danny, duck hooking a lot of drives lately. It may be due to my lower right hand grip. By making the changes you suggested my strike generated more power. I will try this tip on the range and course this morning.

As a senior golfer, you inspire me to hit better each day. Your refresher tips are always amazing.

Wow , Danny great video once again mate! I found that was my problem when I held the club I was too weak in my left hand !! Your process on how to hold the club will help me get consistency!

Enjoyed the review very much, sometimes we forget to go back to basics. Also i'm thankful to let go of the grip pressure thought with the big stick, I think this will help immensely. Cheers Danny, thanks again.

Excellent tip! Especially the change with the trail arm did help me instantly with accuracy and distance. Thanks for your videos, best wishes from Hamburg!

Thanks Danny…I’m going to try full fingers from my usual overgrip I’ve used for 32 years… it feels good 👍… I’ll try it today ⛳️

Awesome video! The visual demonstration is incredible and so simple to practice. Can't wait to hit the range and give this a try! Thank you.

Good advice, if you're feeling a little off on the feel of the club, I'll move my grip a little up or down to get the feel again just a quarter inch or so usually is good.

Always great explanations! Many vids out there, but you always make it plain. Thanks again!!!

Yeah another great video,such in-depth to how easy the golf grip should be but we make it harder on ourselves thank you Danny

I agree danny. Love the way you break it down so simply ! Very helpful video. Thanks so much

Thanks Danny for a great explanation. I've definitely been over thinking the grip thing... My last round I literally tried 5 different grips and you can about imagine how consistent that round was. 🙂

Stellar content, great delivery. Very well done, Sir!
