A correcting golf swing can stop hooks or slices

from:

The typical golfer will have problems with their iron play, driver, and golf swing in general. Some of the common troubles encountered by golfers while on the course are hooks, slices, and shots that fly too high or too low. These problematic shots are caused by an incorrect golf swing. A correcting golf swing may be easier to achieve than you think. Hooks, slices, and other problem shots will be a thing of the past once you learn the correcting golf swing to use for the shot that is bothering you.

For different golf swing problems, try these correcting golf swing tips. By mastering a correcting golf swing, your golf swing will be fixed and you will be able to score those pars and birdies instead of bogeys and double bogeys.

If you are hitting hooks instead of hitting the ball straight, take a look at these correcting golf swing suggestions:

• Make sure your grip isn't turned too far to the right. You want your hands to make a v-shape that is pointing directly up.
• Check your ball position and make sure it is not too far back in your stance. For a driver, you will want to set up with the golf ball near your left foot if you are a right-handed player.
• Carefully check to see where you are aiming. With hooks, players are often aligning their body and shoulders too far to the right.
• Make sure you are not taking the club back too close to the inside during your back swing. For a straight shot, you want to be sure to take the golf club straight back and straight through with the downswing so your club face meets the golf ball squarely.

If your problem is slices off the tee box, these quick tips might help you out:

• The hands of your grip may be turned too far to the left. Make sure that your hands are forming a v-shape with your grip that is pointing up towards you.
• Make sure your body is aligned with your desired target line. Slices often result from setting up too far left.
• When you are slicing you shots, your ball position may be too far forward. Try moving the ball position back in your stance. Your wedges and short irons should be played in the middle of your stance.
• During your back swing, make sure you aren't taking the club out too far away from your body. Try to keep an even swing plane and take the ball directly back in a straight line from your set up position.
