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 47: simulator day! Played St. Andrew’s and shot a +1. Not bad, especially with having to putt at this simulator set up. Had about 5 minutes at the end to work on some feels as well.

      I think you're saying it's preposterous to think that the areas on this club are anything like what's shown here: 30mm toward the toe or heel loses only 5% distance? Highly, highly doubtful. So a guy who hits the ball there and normally hits the ball about 250… will hit it instead about 238. By missing the sweet spot by about 1.2 inches? Highly, highly doubtful. Heck, the high heel barely gets into the red, and orange is only "up to" 10%! @M2R, I've never heard of "Ask Golf Nut" but I'm dubious of his claims in the video and really, really dubious of what's on his site: "Why AskGolfNut Is the Most Trusted Data-Driven Golf Resource". Hmmmmmm.

      So the question was posed today by some of my friends.  Is a pitch mark the same as a divot?  I thought NO, but they argued if your ball lands in another player's divot (made by club during a swing) this was the same as a pitch mark, i.e. the ball mark made when the ball lands
