1. **Interlocking Grip**:
- Start by placing your lead hand (left hand for right-handed golfers, right hand for left-handed golfers) on the golf club's handle.
- Position the grip diagonally across the fingers of your lead hand so that the handle runs from the base of your little finger to the middle of your index finger.
- Wrap your fingers around the grip, making sure the club rests diagonally across the base of your fingers and the palm of your hand.
- Extend your thumb along the handle, pointing down towards the club's head.
- Next, place your trailing hand (right hand for right-handed golfers, left hand for left-handed golfers) on the grip so that the pinky finger of your trailing hand interlocks with the index finger of your lead hand.
- Wrap your fingers around the grip, positioning the club in the crease between your palm and fingers.
- Extend your trailing thumb down the handle, mirroring the position of your lead thumb.
2. **Overlap Grip** (also known as the Vardon Grip):
- Begin by placing your lead hand on the golf club's handle in a similar manner to the interlocking grip, but without interlocking your fingers.
- Wrap your fingers around the grip, ensuring the club rests diagonally across the base of your fingers and the palm of your hand.
- Extend your thumb along the handle, pointing down towards the club's head.
- Next, place your trailing hand on the grip so that the pinky finger of your trailing hand overlaps the index finger of your lead hand.
- Wrap your fingers around the grip, positioning the club in the crease between your palm and fingers.
- Extend your trailing thumb down the handle, mirroring the position of your lead thumb.
3. **Baseball Grip** (also known as the Ten Finger Grip):
- Place your lead hand on the golf club's handle, positioning the grip diagonally across your fingers as described above.
- Wrap your fingers around the grip, ensuring the club rests diagonally across the base of your fingers and the palm of your hand.
- Extend your thumb along the handle, pointing down towards the club's head.
- Next, place your trailing hand on the grip in a similar manner, positioning the club in the crease between your palm and fingers.
- Wrap your fingers around the grip, ensuring both hands are in contact with the handle without overlapping or interlocking.
- Extend both thumbs down the handle, pointing towards the club's head.
Regardless of the grip style you choose, it's essential to maintain a relaxed grip pressure, allowing for fluid wrist action during the swing. Practice your grip regularly to develop consistency and control in your golf game. If you're new to golf or unsure about your grip, consider seeking guidance from a golf instructor who can provide personalized instruction and feedback.
