1. The Reverse Overlap is the most common of putting grips. Apply your left hand to the putter grip and then, just beneath, rest your right hand around the putter grip. Link both your hands by lifting the index finger of your left hand and wrapping it over the fingers of your right hand.
2. The Left-hand-low grip (also known as Cross-handed, Crossover or Cack-handed) is basically the reverse of the traditional golf putting grip. This grip suggests placing your left hand (for right-handers) below the right hand. Both hands are linked by wrapping the index finger of the right hand across the fingers of the left hand.
3. The Claw grip (also known as Gator grip) is one of the most unusual golf putting grips where the fingers of the bottom hand are on top of the grip rather than on the bottom (similar to a violin grip), and the hand is hooked in place by wrapping the right thumb around and underneath the grip. The form described by the thumb and the rest of the fingers reminds of a lobster's pincer or claw, hence the name. The left hand is placed on the putter grip in the traditional way. This style of putting grip forces the left hand to take the lead, eliminating the feeling of the wrists breaking down in the stroke. A slight variation of the claw grip is the Phillip Price's grip where the fingers of the right rest diagonally across the side of the grip. Another variation is the Psycho grip or DiMarco grip in which the right hand holds the grip as if it were a handle, and the left hand grips the club conventionally.
4. The Two Fingers Down grip is a simple variation of the traditional putting grip. Both hands are wrapped around the putter grip so that it rests in the palms again, but with both index fingers pointing straight down the side of the putter grip.
5. Split-handed grip: the hands are held split from each other. The player can alternate left-hand low and right-hand low. Ideally, the fingers of the upper hand should ouch the forearm of the lower hand.
6. Bernhard Langer's grip: To form the Langer grip place your left hand at the lowest point on the putting grip so that the inside of the left forearm is held tight against the shaft and point your index finger down the shaft. Now add your right hand at the top of the grip so that the fingers touch the back of your left arm and your thumb rests just above the wrist joint of the left arm. This grip takes the hands out of the stroke allowing you to rely entirely on the more controllable motion of the shoulders.
7. The box grip is one of the most recent of golf putting grip that only appeared in the last couple of years. Both hands are placed side by side, level with each other on the grip, so that the shoulders are level. The left hand should be placed at the top of the grip with the index finger running down the side of the grip and the right hand alongside it, about and inch lower, so that the hands form a kind of box.
8. Palms facing grip: a neutral-hand position grip popularized by Vijay Singh. This grip suggests holding your putter in such a way that your palms are almost facing, with your right hand only slightly further down the club than your left. Your thumbs should be resting partially on the side of the club.
9. The Pencil grip: used with a long putter. The right hand holds the putter like a pencil and the left hand it put on top of the grip at the extreme hand of the club.
