I’m sure at some point you’ve been taught to hold the golf club like you’re “holding a baby bird” or “holding a tube of toothpaste without trying to squeeze any toothpaste out of it”. I was taught the same way with the idea that lighter grip pressure was always good for your golf swing and that’s what you needed to do for the best results.

Surprisingly, holding the club light in your hands creates a whole bunch of potential problems in every area of your golf game – from the golf swing to chipping and pitching, and even putting. When you hold the club lightly, it allows for it to wobble and move around during your swing. This lack of security in your grip makes it difficult to return the club squarely at impact. It can also get your wrists moving excessively which can cause flipping and other contact issues.

Holding the golf club tightly – firmly in your hands – does the opposite. While it will feel very different, Bryson Dechambeau says a tight hold on the club sends signals through your body that the golf club isn’t going anywhere and that you can just send it…not bad advice from a guy who rips the ball nearly 400 yards. I can attest to this. I used to grip the golf club so lightly and, even though it was secure in my hands, I still felt like the club was moving too much into places it shouldn’t be…then one day I started gripping it really firm and amazing things happened…I got my accuracy back, the ball was traveling farther, and I putted lights out!

I am Tom Saguto, PGA Member and founder of SagutoGolf. Thank you for visiting my instructional page where you can find how to get on the fast track to improving your golfing abilities. Whether you are a seasoned golfing veteran looking for a quick swing tune-up after an on-course emergency, or a beginner just looking to get the most out of your golfing experience, I am here to help you achieve your golfing goals.

My mission as your swing doctor is simple, to help you maximize your enjoyment in game of golf. Because, let’s face it, golf is a hard game.

My philosophy is wholly based on the student having a fun, meaningful experience in a frustrating and complicated game where potential lifelong golfers either quit because it is too difficult or that they experience some form of swing-related pain or discomfort. I mitigate these problems by focusing entirely on the student’s needs and goals while teaching a golf swing method that ultimately takes stress off of the common pain areas of the swing.
