Recently, whenever i hit a drive, it starts out straight as an arrow, and then starts curving severely to the right. I didn't have this problem before, and i have no idea as to whats causing it. Does anyone know? Thanks

could be a number of things, it's difficult to tell without video. most likely you're coming over the top, or you could be hanging back and not releasing the club and swiping across the ball.


The shot you describe is caused by having the club face square to the target at impact and a swing path that is coming from the outside to the inside (over the top). Club face determines the initial direction of the ball and the swing path relative to the club face determines spin or curve.

How to fix it gets more complicated but in general you want to swing more in to out instead of out to in. I could be something simple mechanically that you are doing different, it's going to be hard to tell unless you have someone look at your swing, or take a video of your self and see where the flaw lies.

I have the same problem, I have a really strong drive, and had a Rflex shaft, so got a stiffer shaft and slowed my swing down, and straitened up.
honestly jus get on the range, slow it down an get used to a nicer swing path then speed it back up.
