The Baseball Grip

Yes, I'm referring to the ten-finger grip, i.e., no overlap or interlock of any kind. In TGM this is designated the Baseball Grip (10-1-B). In photo 10-1-B #1, you see the Normal version, i.e., hands close and touching. Photo 10-1-B #2 illustrates the Exaggerated version, i.e., hands split apart and not touching.

As an example, Henrik Stenson, demonstrates here the Exaggerated Baseball Grip:



Note that this version "increases the Right Hand support of the Clubhead Loading during Impact".

Note also that the Clubshaft breaks at the #3 Pressure Point (right hand index finger).

I guess we can call this a Snap Release!
