Feeling club head in swing
Now this is a thing. I have heard so much about feeling the club head during the swing but it is one of those things which has never happened for me.
Anybody actually feel the club head..?
Could I possibly have too light a grip.?

get some cheap sticks and you may notice the weight compared to more expensive branded models, i know i do. not in the full swing but on the down swing

IMO it is essential to be able to feel the clubhead throughout the swing or it would be impossible to time it correctly.
A light grip, Robbie, would do the opposite to what you are suggesting.
I feel that if one cannot feel the clubhead, then it is most probably caused by an incorrect swingweight, something that is often overlooked when buying clubs.

Wayne, the flight of the ball lets you know what went right or wrong, not your body.

David, I never get a feeling of jarring at impact, generally I just swing through without effort really and the balls gone. Not always in the area I expected though.
But when going through the swing should we be able to feel the club head as if that is what we are swinging.

Yeah, i can sense where the club head is during the swing - maybe I am getting confused with "the knowing" and "the feeling".........If you get my drift..
