GET A FEEL FOR A PERFECT GRIP
When it came to designing the moulded grip, my brief to the engineers at Golf Pride was quite simple: I wanted to make sure that the grip was taken more towards the fingers - particularly in the left hand - as the majority of amateurs tend to take the club too much through the palm, which effectively stifles a good wrist action. The result is a training grip featuring a series of rubber fins and graphics which guide your hands into a perfect position every time. It doesn't matter if you prefer an overlapping or interlocking grip, regular practise with the SwingSetter will see to it that you become accustomed to the feeling of a perfect golf grip.
About the position of the left thumb...
I was also very keen to create a training grip that promotes the correct positioning of the left thumb, as this detail is often misunderstood. The left thumb is not draped squarely down the centre of the grip but is instead pinched 'short' and angled slightly to the right of centre as you look upon it. If you have a club handy, pick it up and check this detail on your own grip. One of the things I have always felt is that the better the 'connection' between the left thumb and the upper part of the left forefinger, the better the security of the hand on the club. If the thumb and forefinger are allowed to separate, you effectively lose power.

Low in the fingers
Holding the SwingSetter at a 45-degree angle, lay the grip diagonally in the fingers of the left hand so that it runs from the base of the little finer through to the first joint of the forefinger. Check that the left thumb is is the designated outlined area. For optimum feel and full mobility in the right hand, make sure that the grip again runs primarily in the fingers. When you close your right hand the left thumb should be totally covered, fitting snug beneath the flexy pad at the base of the right thumb.

Feel the 'trigger'
Another feature of this grip is the lower fin that is designed to separate the right forefinger from the second finger and thus give you a distinct 'trigger'. This is vital in terms of creating a full 'set' of the wrists in the backswing and then holding that angle in the wrists as you swing the club down before 'cracking the whip' at impact.
