Many Of our leading pros advise q
tighter grip on the club for long iron
play.
Don't confuse q tight grip with
tightening Of the wrists. Tight wrists
must be avoided. II there is tension
in the wrists. the shot will be spoiled.
When playing from sand or heavy
rough with q niblick, the need for q
tight grip Is urgent. It is sometimes
necessary to plow through sand or
