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.)

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
