ゴルフのグリップの仕方に関する技術発達史的考察

抄録

 The purpose of this study is to identify and explain the reasons for the golf grip that is most appropriate for the golf swing that is currently considered to be most ideal. In this study, the theories and opinions of 50 theorists studying any one of the 4 basic types of golf swings identified in the earlier study (ANDOH/ASAOKA 2003)- wrist turn/I type, wrist turn/reverse-C type, no-wrist turn/reverse-C type, no-wrist turn/I type - were researched. It was found from researching the grips advocated by the theorists, that there are 4 types of grips. The relationship between the 4 grip types and the 4 basic swing types which have transformed with technical evolvement were then researched m this study, and the grip for the swing considered to be most ideal, the no-wrist turn/I- type, was found.
 The following were made clear in this study from observations. By categorizing the grip by the V-shape made by the area between the index finger and thumb into the direction to which it points- the Jaw Direction or the Right Shoulder Direction-4 types of grips can be derived from the combination of the left / right grip with the direction to wmch the V-shape points.
 It was found that the grip which both the right and left V-shape point the Right Shoulder Direction was the most appropriate grip for the no-wrist turn/I type swing. This is due to the following reasons. With regard to the right grip, it is effective to turn the V- shape towards the right shoulder, in order not to turn the wrist. With regard to the left grip, it is effective to turn the V-shape towards the right shoulder, in order to resist the torsion of the club shaft.
 In a future study, I would like to research the posture of the address, the position and distance of the ball for a more effective coaching method for the no-wrist turn/I type swing.
