Poll: Standard Putter Grip

[johnptaylor]

Standard Grip being that the left hand is near the butt of the grip...

I know I am probably one of very few but I tend to mix it up like every round (just whatever feels better on the practice green) for as long as I can remember. Probably not ideal but just wanted to if people had a preference.

Standard, left hand high, right on top of left.

I tried left hand low once for 9 holes

I grip my putter like I grip all my clubs - interlocking, right hand low

 

[Hitsnmisses]

Same as for every other club in the bag . And same as my bat grip for cricket

 

[Parrot]

Left hand low, right index finger overlaps left little finger.

I can’t imagine changing my grip every round. I’ve tried them all and nothing feels right to me except standard and no overlap

 

[sheepdawg]

Left hand low, interlocking. Been putting crosshand so long I can't remember when I started. Has to be more than 40 years.

 

[BigMac]

Standard, no overlap.

These days I switch into multiple combinations during one round, having a few challenges .

My putting grip is quite different from the grip I put on all my other clubs. I suspect its that way for all the pros too…. Perhaps something to ponder..?

This thread needs to define what “overlap” means….

Does anyone actually “overlap” their lower hand (“std grip”)? Most pros using a “std” putting grip overlap their left hand index finger over the right hand fingers.

[Bosco...]

Reverse overlap.

After 40+ years?

where would the world be without the beloved “but we’ve always done it this way” crowd!

Putting is the best part of my game, pretty much always has. If it ain't broke, don't fix it

Maybe you’d reach Legendary status with a change though!!!

Just messin….

 

[Just_Brad]

Right hand low. Often with a finger pointing down the shaft these days!

 

[jbb2388]

Fiddled with left hand low on the putting green a few times but it just feels so uncomfortable

 

[Dcharo]

I prefer right hand high

Overlapping pointer finger and middle finger
