Hitting off the toe

[Soxx22]

I've been hitting the ball off the toe and i can't seem to stop it. I've tried standing closer to the ball or setting the ball off the heel at address and nothing seems to be working. I'm not slicing the ball i usually miss left (which is normal for me.)

any thoughts???

It sounds to me as if you are hitting the ball with an "outside to inside" swing. This is most likely being caused by coming over the top on the downswing. I have the same problem and here is what I check to make sure that I'm doing:

1. Check grip pressure. If I'm gripping the club too tightly then I'll come over the top.

2. Check alignment. I have a tendency to have my feet and shoulders on different lines. For example, I tend to set up with my shoulders open and my feet square or vice versa.

3. Check ball position. If the ball is too far forward in your stance, your shoulders will be open.

4. Make sure you rotate on the backswing with the arms. If the arms don't stick with the chest then they''ll go more straight back and you'll come over the top.

Hope these help.
