Grip:   Left Hand –  the crease between your forefinger and thumb should point towards your left shoulder.   Right Hand – the crease between your forefinger and thumb should point towards your right shoulder.

Weak Grip:   tends to  promote an outside to in swing path  producing a  slice  - crease on right hand points towards chin.   Strong Grip:   tends to promote an inside to outside swing path  producing a hook – crease on left hand points towards chin, right hand points towards right shoulder.
