Blocked Shots

[clubhousehero]

Ok. I've been going through some swing changes latley so i've been posting lot of swing tips lately. It seems whenever i fix one problem, something else pops up.

So lately i have been pushing the ball WAY right. My friend who is much better than me said i was getting stuck and that was causing me to hit some blocked shots. If i don't block it i hit a hard hook. He also said my hands and clubhead were WAY behind my body.

I need some tips, drills, videos that will help me fix this problem. I've searched the internet some and couldn't find much.

Would keeping my hands further from my head help? I've heard this but don't know what it fixes.

P.S. The problem is mostly with my driver and some with my longer clubs.

I'm no pro, but blocking can happen due to either what you said with getting the club stuck behind you. Also, sliding your hips towards the target can produce a blocked shot. Maybe focus on turning your hips and body through the shot rather than just a big weight shift. Start with smaller half swings focusing on starting the downswing with a turn of the hips while keeping the club in front of your body.

try keeping your right foot on the ground at impact. This will slow down your hips and help your arms "keep" up with your swing.
