When using 10-2-B, do folks feel that the palms of both hands are facing each
other very squarely (think of holding a 2x4, palms exactly face)?
This is an interesting question. When most people think "palms
together" they assume a 'praying' position, i.e., palms together and
both wrists bent. In this instance, the back of the Left Hand and the palm of
the Right both face down the Target Line. But...
These alignments ignore the Inclined Plane of Motion and the Inside Out Angle
of Approach. The correct 10-2-B is assumed with the Left Wrist Flat and only
the Right Wrist Bent. With these Impact Alignments in place, the back of
the Left Hand and the palm of the Right face down the Angle of Approach, well
to the right of the Target.
So, there is a 'palms together' feel of the 'prayer' Grip and the 'palms
together' Feel of the correct Golf Grip. If you feel:
1. Your Left Wrist and Right Palm facing to the right of the Target;
2. Your Right Palm pressing your Left Thumb in the same 'to the right'
direction; and finally...
3. The all important Right Forefinger #3 Pressure Point also facing the same
direction...
Then you are feeling a true 'palms together' Grip.
