Grew up interlocking and somehow went to baseball. Switched to overlap, never looked back.

I have been interlocking ever since I was around 7-8. I was baseball grip before that. My old man played in college and he was an interlocker, said he would never change, so he taught me the same mentality. If it isn't broke don't fix it.

I have tried the overlap style a few times, I never could get used to it. I feel like there isnt enough pressure with my right hand, tend to flare it out high and right.

I overlap 2 fingers for putts, but I like to feel an actual shot.

Looks like the Interlock is more popular on TD.



The golf board worships the most boring golfer in the history of the game Adam Scott. Of course the outdated interlock grip is the most popular here.

I just switched from the baseball grip to the interlock this past off season.

per a website - People with small hands, weak forearms and wrists, and beginners in many cases prefer this style of grip.

this was my main reason for going with overlap. but I think it boils down to what is comfortable and works best for you.
