what is the grip level of left hand during impact ?

what is the grip level of left hand during impact ? Until the impact left hand carry the weight of the club. Will it ever released during impact?.

Because most of my left hand pronation happens because my left hand still hold the weight of the club.

Left hand to club angle straight line at impact?.

just wondering... because my ball is going straight but too much arc.

No such thing, IMO.

Not sure what you are getting at, but left wrist should be flat at impact and in line with the shaft. If you are getting too much arc, your left wrist has probably broken down and you are uplofting tghe club

What do you mean by "grip level"? At first, I thought you meant grip pressure, but now I'm not sure.

i meant grip pressure(1-10).

I want my grip pressure to be just enough to prevent the club from slipping. Usually, though, the pressure is more than I intend. It seems that it is always more at impact than at the start of the swing, so I try to keep it pretty light at setup.

It seems to me that the more you trust your swing, the lighter pressure you will use. Too much pressure inevitably occurs because of heightened anxiety about the shot.

i tend to keep a firm grip on all my clubs save for my putter. i cant think of a sport where a light grip is warranted when one is striking a ball with an object.
