After never being able to hit the ball left and slicing everything I took some lessons and was improving greatly. I had about 6 rounds a row in the mid 80's, not great by some of your standards but great by mine. Anyway after the lessons my shots were straightening out a little every round. When I put those great rounds together i had a baby draw, then a 5-10 yard draw. Now I'm struggling to break 90 with a massive 20 yard draw/hook. It's very predictable and my drives and wood roll out forever, but sometimes you just can't play a 20 yard draw. I know I'm turing the club over at impact or right before, but if I hold off on the turn I hit 50% good 25% I leave way out right and 25% even though I'm trying to hold of I manage to but the same draw on it.

Any tips or drills? The reason I think it's the wrist instead if other problems is the ball always starts right before turing if I was hitting a pull/hook I would think it would start left and go more left.

Going by just what you'r saying, Your shots are starting straight and then drawing? Correct? If that's the case, you're impact position is square and you're swinging on an inside to out path that produces the draw. Simplest change is just open your clubface a little and swing the same. May have to line up a little right of target.

sounds to me like your hands are coming too far inside on the backswing. what i do when this happens is swing out to in and slowly work back to where i'm hitting the ball straight again.
