Awards, Achievements, and Accolades

When I first started golf, I fought a low pull-slice. Then I figured out how to close the clubface and turned it into a pull-hook. Then I figured out how to better swing the club coming more from the inside. The tendency now is to flatten the shaft a bit too much on my downswing resulting in a push hook. When I get quick with the shoulders from the top it turns back into a pull hook.

My option ain't on there, I fight a push right. This really happens when i'm trying to play a draw off the teebox or on the fairway. I just leave the ball hanging right. If this starts to happen consistently during a round, I just start playing around with a powerfade.

Right now I tend to fight a hook. I used to fight a push, but I made some swing changes which caused me to start hitting a hook.
This has forced me to change to a weaker grip and Im still getting used to the different feel of my new grip.

Whats in my :sunmountain: C-130 cart bag?

You don't have mine either-- I fight a ball flight that's about 8 inches above the ground before skittering off into the underbrush.

My woods I hit dead straight. My irons tend to fall off to the left a yard or two. I can hit a soft fade, though.

You fight a dead straight ball flight with your woods?

I was kind of asking what your miss was, you should have one, if you don't you should play in the PGA man. And seriously, where are all my pull slicers at? I seen dozens of them at the range.

Worm burners notwithstanding, I actually voted pull-hook. On the range, it's usually closer to a dead pull, but usually hooks if anything. On the course I more occasionally run into the pull slice, really only with my 5W.
