A good golf grip is very important, most golf players use the overlap grip or Harry Barden grip, this is when the pink overlaps the index finger. An important tip is to not have the golf grip right up in their palms, because you lose leverage and do not have the same movement. A good way to hold the golf grip is put the grip a bit more in your fingers, this gives you more movement.
