I played baseball all my life growing up and didn't pick up golf until college. Naturally, I started playing using a baseball grip and never changed. Is it worth being uncomfortable for a while to switch to interlocking grip?

Took me 6 years to get my son-in-law to go to interlock.

Hit his first 300 yard drive and hasn't looked back.

Now if I can just get him to work on his short game.

I interlock. I occasionally use the baseball grip when things are out of whack

I didn't know he used a 10 finger grip. I guess I should have paid attention last week.

Yeah. Piercy is the guy I latch onto when my friends mock me for having a 10 finger grip.

I've tried interlock and overlap, but it just is so uncomfortable for me

I didn't pick up golf until I was 23 or 24 and started with a baseball grip. I've played around with the interlock or overlap and could never get comfortable with it so I stuck with the baseball and it works for me

If you are happy with your ball striking that is all that matters

Many years ago I joined up with another single and immediately noticed he played from the right side but left hand low on every shot as well as putting that way.

It was the first time I had ever seen this technique and resolved that this gave me a conventional gripper a big advantage over him.

That opinion changed after the round when I paid front back and 18 bets on our nassau !
