Correct driver grip, tee height, and other tips for your short game

Most golfers think the short game is about chipping and putting, but if you’re reading this, your short game excels off the tee.

So we’re here to help you with a few tips to refine your short game taken from our new upcoming book, “Grip It and Top It: Maximising Your Wedge Distance with a Driver”:

• Tee Height: Lower is better. You want the ball to barely escape the gravitational pull of the Earth.
  
• Driver Grip: Hold it like you’re climbing a rope in the gym and worried about the burns if you let go. Tightest tension possible, interlock either all fingers or none.
  
• Stance: Stand confidently, even if your ball ends up behind you somehow. Confidence is key to pretending you meant to do that.
  
• Club: Buy the newest and most expensive driver possible. It will greatly hold its value when you go to upgrade in a few rounds because you’ve barely managed to touch the face with a ball yet.
  
• Balls: Once again, high-quality and expensive. It’s worth it because you’re unlikely to lose any over such a short distance.
