Jimmy Hennessy Shows Randy Haj Golf Grip In Shower
‘TWO KNUCKLES WITH A ‘V’ GOING UP THE SHAFT…’
Manzanita 2015 — Utilizing every moment leading up to the Saturday morning round, Jimmy Hennessy worked in some last minute coaching with teammate Randy Haj in the shower.
Saying he could show his friend a technique that would both 'increase his control and allow him to go way longer,' Hennessy spent 20 minutes carefully and thoroughly demonstrating his personal grip to Haj.
'Not too tight, not too loose, see the way my fingers are? You can interlock them, you can overlap them, just not too tight is the important thing. Now swing away,' a sudsy Hennessy told Haj, who noted that it works for both right and left-handers, as rivulets of steaming water coursed down their bodies.
'It's all in the wrist, let the head do the work, find the sweet spot… Yeah… yeah… that's right. You've got it. Beautiful. Uh-huh. Just keep on just like that.'
Haj later confided to friends that the useful lesson could have been less awkward if Hennessy had brought a club into the shower with him.
