By Danny Ward


The two thumb grip is starting to show up on the PGA/LPGA tours. Can this two thumb putter grip be the solution for you you?? Keep reading to see what other golfers are doing and saying - I certainly am looking into making a change.

The two thumb putter grip is a much bigger grip than a regular grip. With its square appearance, it is wider than a regular grip. This grip allows you to hold the grip with your two thumbs side by side. Making the switch to a two thumb putter grip could be a smart move on your part.

The biggest improvements have been seen in the following areas:

1. Improved hitting distances, with much greater control. 2. Putts of up to 15 feet have been going in more often 3. Helped diminished erratic putts. 4. Very important technique - an improved pendulum motion while swinging.

If you are really not happy with your putting ability, why not try a two thumb grip before you consider buying a new club? This will save you money and headaches with trying out various clubs. Most importantly though, you will need to feel comfortable - if you give it a go for a few weeks, and you feel it doesnt fit will in your hands, then try something different. It may not work for everyone.

As with any grip, you can adapt this two thumb putter grip to your own personal preference. Many golfers have adapted this grip by keeping the left hand further up the grip and dropping the right hand down. This makes it so that you can use your right hand to hit with more power. It feels as though you are rolling the ball towards the hole with your right hand. This specific variation allows you to be more consisten with your putts.

If you have gone out and tried all the different types of putters, including belly putters, chin putters, left hand low, left hand putting, thumb-to-thumb grips with a regular putter, mallet putters and blade putters, maybe you should try the two thumb putter grip first and see if this relieves your frustrations?

A lot of recreational golfers now report a putting average of about 30 putts a round. Being able to putt like this will give you so much more confidence. Your golf score is sure to improve. The two thumb putter grip has made many golfers that had lost their love for the game return to the scene.

With putting being the weakest part of the game for many golfers, any new innovations could prove to be very helpful. This actually promotes a much smoother stroke as the grip tends to get a little heavier. You could even get some weird looks at the golf course, but when other players see how you play, they will be asking you where you got your two thumb putter grip from.
