Quick Fix for Hooking
If I open with the statement that I like hookers, I might get in trouble! Let me qualify that by saying, I like people that hit their golf balls to the left with curvature. For left handers, this would be …. to the right with curvature.
Why do I like them? Well, these rare beasts are simple to cure as there is only ever one root cause of their problem. The golf club face is pointing to the left when you hit the ball and that can only be caused by the hands turning the clubface that way on the downswing.
The solution is as follows: move your hands to the left on the grip of the golf club until the ball starts to go straight. Yes, it’s that simple. This will stop the ball going to the left.
I am not going to guarantee the ball will go straight – you may well have already developed some anti-hook issues that will need to be sorted – but the promise here and now is that right handers will stop the hook to the left. And left handers….well, I think you can work it out from here.
