Short Game · Drill

Narrow the grip gap to feel release

The instructor gives a small drill with the right hand on the club and fingers against the top of the grip. The player rehearses to feel the gap get narrower, push the fingers back up, and release with rotation instead of letting the gap get bigger in the downswing.
