xxio Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I would think this is a training aid? No way that grip would be legal under the rules of golf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoverRick Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I would think this is a training aid? No way that grip would be legal under the rules of golf. Why would this not be legal? As far as I have seen there is nothing that says how one must grab the club. That is the reason the long putters are legal. This is no different that the two thumb putters. I actually changed putter grips today, the way I hold the club not the rubber on the shaft. I went to the interlocking grip and love it.

The grip must be fixed to the shaft, must be straight and plain in form, must extend to the end of the shaft and must not be molded for any part of the hands. If no material is added, that portion of the shaft designed to be held by the player must be considered the grip. (ii) A putter grip may have a non-circular cross-section, provided the crosssection has no concavity, is symmetrical and remains generally similar throughout the length of the grip. (See Clause (v) overleaf). (iii) The grip may be tapered but must not have any bulge or waist. Its crosssectional dimensions measured in any direction must not exceed 1.75 inches (44.45 mm). Of course the "plain in form" aspect is subjective and has to be decided by the USGA or R&A as the case may be. I do agree that this is "less cheating" than anchoring.

Matt Saternus Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I've seen this as a trainer, too. I want to say Ernie endorsed it. Interesting idea. Follow me on Twitter: @MattSaternus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btbgolf4 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I've seen a training putter/grip like this before. Can't remember who made it though. Medicus, they had it all over their infomercials when they advertised the Medicus driver "Never criticize anyone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you'll be a mile away and you have their shoes." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
