The underrated right hand grip

I know there is a lot of discussion on this board and others regarding the lead hand grip. However for me, I've found that when I get going left it's more a product of a strong trail hand grip getting me in trouble.

If I want to hit a fade, I'm working the ball now by getting my right hand more on top and if I want to work it left, I get my right hand more under.

Does anyone else do this?
 
correct mjstrong. I'm talking about setup. I have to be very careful not to get my trail hand (right hand for me) turned too far right at setup, or I'll start working it left.

I don't know if that's just an issue for me, because most people on this forum seem way more concerned about the lead hand and don't seem to worried about how they setup the trial hand.

The right hand in a grip does have more influence in how "fast" the face closes the left hand grip as more influence on how closed it will be at the impact interval.

Interesting Jim, I never had thought of it that way. So by placing the right hand in a weaker setup position, I cannot close the face as rapidly

So, face hooks or pulls could be caused by left hand grip causing a shut face at impact interval, or by a right hand grip causing the face to close too early?

Yes could be either...each had has an effect just in a different way
