00:00 The only connection you have with a golf club is in the hands and the grip so it needs to be correct.

00:05 You need to have the correct grip thickness to suit your golf swing. We establish the right

00:11 grip thickness by again measuring doing a measurement so we measure your overall hand

00:16 length and measure the longest finger and then when you're gripping the golf club what we want

00:20 to see is that the fingers are just touching the pad of the palm without digging in too much. If

00:25 you see that there's a bit of a gap then the club's too the grip's too thick. If you no gap and the

00:31 fingers are really digging into the palm a little bit then the grip is too thin so we want to go

00:36 thicker. The result of those things would be that if a grip is way too thin your hands can get a

00:42 little bit too active and you can start hitting a shot with a hook or hitting it left. If it's way

00:48 too thick your hands aren't working correctly and you're not getting the club head squaring up and

00:52 so the ball can stay out to the right. We do six different grip thicknesses from something that's

01:00 quite thin to a like a jumbo size.
