Keep grip pressure in the hands, then just maintain it

The coach notes that Gooch keeps grip pressure concentrated in the hands and grip rather than squeezing at a 10 and tensing his arms, rotator cuffs, and shoulders. He says once the grip (the 'claws') is locked onto the club, you don't have to keep applying pressure against it as you push, twist, and hinge — you can just maintain the grip formation you established through the swing.
