Definition: The grip (as in way of holding the club) that is most popular among professional golfers. Named after the great Harry Vardon, who popularized it. In the Vardon grip, place your little finger on the trailing hand (the one placed lower on the club - right hand for a right-handed player) and place it between the index and middle finger on the lead hand (the hand that is higher on the club). The lead-hand thumb should fit in the lifeline of the trailing hand. Photos of the Vardon Grip and the other two most common grips, along with explanations of are, are available in the article "Most Common Golf Grips."
Also Known As: Vardon Overlap, Overlapping Grip
