Whilst the left hand is a palm and finger grip, the right hand is solely a finger grip, and to help you to appreciate how your right hand should feel I want you to take a golf ball in your right hand as if you were about to throw it a long way overarm.
Now look at how you are holding the ball and you will see that you are holding it mainly in your fingers and not very tightly.
This will encourage your wrist to flex backwards as your arm moves forwards, giving you that snap in the wrist just as you release the ball.
Remember, you are not holding the ball tightly, but in a technically correct manner, and that is how you should grip the club.
Now move the ball more into your palm and make the same movement; you will find that much of the flexibility in your wrist has gone.
Although you will have a firmer grip on the ball your ability to throw it a long way has diminished, and this is similar to how many players place their right hand on the grip.
It feels more powerful, but in fact is weaker.
To attain the correct right hand grip place it so that the palm faces the target, with the grip at the base of the fingers.
Close your fingers around the grip, feeling that the right forefinger is slightly triggered and therefore very slightly separated from the middle two.
The little finger should rest either on top of the left forefinger (if you have small hands) or between it and the left middle finger.
The thumb should sit just to the left of centre on the grip.
The left thumb will sit snugly in the palm of the right hand, and is invisible when viewed face on.
The right forefinger sits very much at the side of, rather than under, the grip.
The 'V' of the right hand is virtually parallel to that of the left and therefore points just inside the right shoulder.
Again, the best way to monitor your grip is to hold the club up in front of you.
Check the position of both 'V's; the number of knuckles visible on the left hand should be two to two-and-a-half.
As you progress at this game, so your grip may need to alter slightly according to how much hand action you are capable of producing, but the guidelines I have given should be acceptable for most players.
If, after reading this, you realise that your grip is far from perfect, persevere with the change.
Initially it may feel terrible and the results may not instantly inspire you, but remember that a sound grip is the basis of a sound swing.
Then close the fingers around the grip, leaving the index finger slightly triggered.
Again, the view from the front and from the side.
To introduce the right hand to the grip, place it so that the palm is facing the target.
