Hi all,

Im an 18 hcp golfer and in recent months I have become very uncomfortable when I grip my 5 and 7 woods which leads to really l bad shots  namely, a hook , topping shot and an extreme toe shot.

This has destroyed my confidence with these 2 clubs. Driver is ok and irons all ok I have a neutral grip with v's going up my right shoulder. 

As soon as I grip a 5 or 7 wood I feel a hooking sensation so scary. I need help really badly.

Hope some out there can help

cheers

I started working on my setup...taking dead aim with the leading edge of the clubface, and standing a little closer and taller at address. Best, -Marv (But what do I know? These sorts of "tips" are worth a dime a dozen. Best to have a coach look at you and video you.)
