Hi guys, used to play off 5 handicap then stopped for 11 years now off 12. Anyone got any useful advice as going through a bad spell of hooking the ball with the longer clubs.
Ball flight starts down the fairway then hooks-other than grip amendment (which is fine) any ideas or help?
Thanks

Get lessons....looks like one or two parts of your swing is incorrect......impossible to give you an answer on here.

try and feel that you are taking the club away outside the line.ie
try and swing it like you want to slice it...there is a good chance
you are swinging in to out...check stance isnt closed
send me a cheque when you get back down to 5.Wink

Check the following list for possible faults:

Aim: Your clubface may be too closed.
Grip: One or both of your hands may be twisted too far to the right. Check the V formed by your thumb and forefinger - it should be pointing inside your right shoulder, not outside.
Ball position: The ball may be too far back in the stance.
Stance: Not usually a problem but may be too wide.
Body alignment: Shoulders aimed far too far to the right. (See above).
Posture: Not normally a factor.
Swing: You cannot hook the ball unless your clubface is going crazy
