For example, even one degree of deflection results 1.75 yards from the targeted pin.
tan Q=0/a, (tan Q)a=0, 0=(tan 1 degree)(100)=tan 1 degree (0.017455)x100=1.75 yards

Let's take a look at the table how deflection of each degree affects the error range of the total distance. Average 4 to 6 degrees of deflection could be generated while you hold the standard conventional grip for the shot.

  Distance from Target
Deflection on Impact 100 yds 150 yds 200 yds 250 yds 300 yds
1 Degree 1.75 yds 2.62 yds 3.50 yds 4.36 yds 5.24 yds
2 Degrees 3.5 yds 5.24 yds 7.00 yds 8.72 yds 10.48 yds
3 Degrees 5.24 yds 7.86 yds 10.50 yds 13.08 yds 15.72 yds
4 Degrees 7.00 yds 10.48 yds 14.00 yds 17.44 yds 20.96 yds
5 Degrees 8.75 yds 13.10 yds 17.50 yds 21.80 yds 26.20 yds
6 Degrees 10.5 yds 15.72 yds 21.00 yds 26.16 yds 31.44 yds
7 Degrees 12.25 yds 18.34 yds 24.50 yds 30.52 yds 36.44 yds
8 Degrees 14.00 yds 20.96 yds 28.00 yds 34.88 yds 41.92 yds
9 Degrees 15.75 yds 23.58 yds 31.50 yds 39.24 yds 37.16 yds
10 Degrees 17.5 yds 26.20 yds 35.00 yds 43.60 yds 52.40 yds

A so called "good grip" will, barring other complications in the swing, bring about these two requirements. "Bad grips" make the attainment of these two conditions almost impossible.

The most important of three components of golf club is club head, shaft and grip, but grip is considered most neglected even though it performs control of the golf swing. At the very beginning of the golf lesson, golfers need to learn how to grip properly.

The grip is your only connection with the golf club and the way you place your hands on the golf club will have a direct relationship to the flight of your ball. Every PGA tour pros and instructors agree that sound grip is most difficult but ultimate.

Placing your hands properly on the golf club helps you better control the position of the club's face at impact. A fundamentally sound grip helps you create power and feel at the same time.

The hands must work together as a single unit when striking a ball with power. If your grip is too weak, the clubface angle at impact will be off line, which will cause the ball to curve. Gripping the club too tight can cause thin, weak shots that slice. A lighter grip enhances wrist hinge- a vital power source in the swing because this light pressure increases the amount of clubface rotation, thus improving your chance of squaring the club at impact. The bottom edge of the clubface needs to be straight to the target line in order for the ball to fly straight toward the target. A good golf grip would be considered neutral, that is, neither weak nor strong. A neutral grip will allow your hands to react properly to an aggressive swing. Especially when we get nervous or tense playing golf trying to pull of a critical shot, the tendency is to squeeze the club a little tighter than normal. This added tension in your hands will automatically start transferring into your arms and shoot all the way up into your shoulders and neck furthering the anxiety. Now your over using muscles in your body that aren't geared to swinging the club properly. By attempting to over work your hands in your swing, especially under pressure, will break the wrists which will mean a loss of control and power.
