I decided to give the overlap grip a try off the tee the other day. My goal wasn't to add distance, but rather to alter my mechanics in a positive way. I found that by using the overlap grip, I was forced to lead w/ my hands and reduce the casting. This of course had the positive side effect of added distance.
There were definitely some bumps (and new blisters) in the process, but I think it will work out well. I think the biggest adjustments will be hitting the ball so much earlier, and because of that, the higher pitches. I'll have to spend a lot of time working on those.
In everyone's experience, what are the hardest adjustments that you need to make?
