Match Your Grip

It is a ‘555 Team’ postulate and foundation that ‘All Components’ of the golf swing must be matching and compatible. If you attempt to mount a transport truck wheel and tire onto your family personal vehicle, you are in for a challenge!

All our ‘555 Golf Academy Family’ (Newsletter Subscribers and Website Members) are fully aware of our ‘5 Set-Ups’. Thus, as you know, they are

  1. Posture,
  2. Grip,
  3. Stance,
  4. Ball Location, and
  5. Alignment.

Let’s consider the ‘Putting & Small Chipping Procedures’. The 5 ingredients must be tastefully selected, blended and stable. Your ‘Grip’ match your ‘Lever Assemblies’ (Wrist Hinge Angles and Upper Body Machine – UBM). Your ‘Lower Body Machine’ (LBM or Core) must also be very quietly in harmony!

Let’s jump right into the ‘Driver Protocols’. The ‘5 Set-Ups’ are a very different ‘Kettle Of Fish’. This ‘Full Swing Procedure’ involves the ‘Highest Energy Level’ and the ‘Biggest Range Of Motion’. The Lower & Upper Body Machines’ are involved in a great deal more activity.

Logically, Posture must suite the ‘Energy Needs’. (‘Clubhead Plane’ – Above, On and Below) and ‘Angle Of Attack’ (AoA – Steep, Neutral & Shallow). The ‘Grip’ is stronger and in a position to do more work. (see ‘Clubface Aim’) ‘Stance’ must be prepared to provide more resistive support and ‘Rotary Action’. The ‘3 Dimensional Ball Location’ must be established so that the ‘Ballistic Point’ of the ball (BOSA) allows the sphere to naturally ‘Get Into The Way Of The Speeding Sweet Spot’. Your ‘Alignment’ must accommodate the ‘Railway Track Syndrome’ (‘Clubhead Path’ – I/O, Sq Sq and O-I)(see ‘Target Line’ & Body Line’)
