People practice perfecting their putting for years, which results in some seriously unconventional techniques. Different putter grips suit different golfers. Finding the best putter grip for you is crucial in lowering your scores. Here are seven putting grip styles to consider.</p></div></div> <div data-v-4b43aa95><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>Why Try a New Grip?</h2><p>Most golfers struggle with some aspect of putting, which causes them to explore new options. Some players have trouble with lag putting, some can’t drain the short ones, and some just can’t seem to nail line or speed. It’s tempting to <a href="https://www.golflink.com/list_1429_best-putters-golf.html">buy a new putter</a> with the idea that looking down at something different will be the cure. Sometimes buying a new putter works, but oftentimes the same mechanical issue gets in the way.</p>
<p>Changing up your putting grip and re-learning how to grip a putter is a simple approach to addressing your putting woes. It costs nothing except your time and a little practice. You may be surprised by the results and find an easy solution to knock a few strokes off of your score.<br /></p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>Conventional Putting Grip (Reverse Overlap)</h2><p>A conventional reverse overlap grip is similar to a <a href="https://www.golflink.com/how_3281_right-hand-improve-golf-swing.html">conventional golf grip</a> in that your right hand is lower than your left and your left thumb rests in the palm of your right hand. The difference is that your left pinkie finger overlaps your left pointer and middle fingers, instead of interlocking.</p><figure><picture><!-- webp for mobile -->

    </picture></figure></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Pros</h3><p>Golfers with an overlap swing grip can easily <a href="https://www.golflink.com/tipsvideos/video.aspx?v=96134">incorporate the conventional reverse overlap</a>. Without no interlocking element, this grip eliminates some of the wrist action that you want to avoid.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Cons</h3><p>The conventional reverse overlap helps get rid of some wrist action, but it might not be the answer if that’s your main putting issue. Also, you will find your right-hand grip pressure to be much stronger.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>Cross-Handed/Left Hand Low Putting Grip</h2><p>Another common putting grip is the left-hand low grip. It sounds self-explanatory, but there’s a little more to it. The left-hand low technique works for numerous professionals including Jordan Spieth and Dustin Johnson, and it might be the right stroke for you. It’s a mirror image of a conventional putting grip, with your left hand lower than the right hand on the club, for a right-handed player.</p><figure><picture><!-- webp for mobile -->

    </picture></figure><p>This grip is also known as the cross-handed grip, given that when left-handed golfers employ this method, it's actually the right hand that's low. </p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Pros</h3><p>Left-hand low can be a great option for golfers who struggle with distance control because your left-hand guides the stroke from the take back to the follow-through. It also helps get the shoulders level at address and through the stroke.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Cons</h3><p>Even though it doesn't differ much from a conventional grip, left-hand low takes a long time to get used to. Not only from a feel standpoint but also gaining an understanding of how your stroke will react differently to lag putts and short putts.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>Broomstick</h2><p>In 2016, the <a href="https://www.golflink.com/how_611_putt-belly-putter.html">USGA banned anchoring putters</a> to your body. The rule was put into place because the governing body felt that having a club anchored to your body gave an unfair advantage in controlling the putter while making a stroke. The broomstick method is still legal, however, but the butt end of the putter can't touch your body.</p><figure><picture><!-- webp for mobile -->

    </picture></figure><p>To accomplish this stroke you will need a long putter. Place your dominant hand low on the club, around hip height. Then grip the top of the putter with your other hand. The idea is that you create a sweeping motion by using both hands. The key to compliance is keeping that butt end away from your body, even if it’s only an inch or two. That is how players like Bernhard Langer and Adam Scott have skirted around the anchoring ban without changing putters.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Pros</h3><p>The broomstick method, when perfected, is meant to feel natural and even flowing. When people find success with it, they tend to use this method for the long haul.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Cons</h3><p>First, you’ll have to invest in a long putter. Beyond that, this is arguably the most unconventional style of putting so it takes a lot of practice time to get used to holding a long putter, let alone using it successfully.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>Arm Lock Putting</h2><p>The arm lock grip and style of putting boomed when anchoring was banned.

You’ll want to take a conventional reverse overlap grip but with a more open left hand. This will allow the grip to run through your left palm and up your wrist, ultimately pressing against your forearm.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Pros</h3><p>An armlock grip can deliver stability to those who feel their putting stroke gets away from them.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Cons</h3><p>Like the broomstick method, you will have to buy a new putter or adjust your current putter for length and loft, as the dramatic forward shaft lean required in this method significantly de-lofts the putter. The arm lock method is also harder to manage distance control, especially in the early going.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>The Claw Grip</h2><p>The <a href="https://www.golflink.com/tipsvideos/video.aspx?v=98034">claw putting grip</a> was once considered very unconventional but has since become more popular on all major tours. With this grip, your left-hand holds the putter in the same way as a convention grip. Your right hand, however, rests against the back of the grip with your pointer finger and thumb basically pinching the grip on either side.</p><figure><picture><!-- webp for mobile -->

    </picture></figure></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Pros</h3><p>The prayer was a drill designed to eliminate hard grip pressure, and that’s exactly what it delivers. This putting grip makes it very difficult to over-apply pressure.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Cons</h3><p>The prayer is easily adaptable on short putts but it’s not easy to execute lag and long putts with this method.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>Professional Putting Changes</h2><p>It's common for some of the world's best players to switch their putting grip. Here are some notable attempts in recent years, which resulted in varying degrees of success.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Collin Morikawa’s Change-Up</h3><p>2021 was hardly a down year for Collin Morikawa. He won the <a href="https://www.golflink.com/list_5365_list-british-open-winners.html">British Open</a> (his second major win) and the WGC Workday Championship. He won just over $7 million and helped the <a href="https://www.golflink.com/facts_35103_list-ofamerican-golfers-with-the-most-ryder-cup-appearances.html">United States Ryder Cup team</a> claim victory over Europe.</p>
<p>At the British Open, however, Morikawa was seen using two different putting techniques. He used a saw putting grip on shorter putts and a conventional grip for longer putts. The variation is not often seen within the same round from a player, but clearly, it worked for Morikawa.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Lefty Goes Claw</h3><p>In 2014, Phil Mickelson switched to a claw putting grip. After winning five of his six majors using a conventional grip, Mickelson made the switch and still uses it today. In fact, <a href="https://www.golflink.com/golf-instruction-techniques/inside-phil-mickelson-s-historic-pga-championship-triumph">Mickelson won the 2021 PGA Championship</a> using the claw grip.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h3>Rory Goes Low</h3><p>In 2016, Rory McIlroy was searching for some help on the greens and adopted a left-hand low putting grip in lieu of his conventional grip. It was short-lived, as McIlroy went back to conventional after a few months. The left-hand low grip has been successful for Jordan Spieth, however.</p></div><div class="cms-body-item" data-v-4b43aa95><h2>Conclusion</h2><p>Any of the putting grips laid out in this article are worth trying if you’re looking to cut down your score. Too often, amateur golfers head to the nearest golf retailer to try to solve their issues with a new putter, but sometimes the new look that you need lies within your hands.</p></div></div> <!----> <div class="author article_secton" data-v-4b43aa95><h2 class="title" data-v-4b43aa95>About the Author</h2> <div class="content" data-v-4b43aa95>Todd Mrowice is a Staff Writer for GolfLink.
