Day 227 (16 Day 24) - Temps back in the 60’s - but a full day of other obligations meant limited time, so I worked on setup, tempo and hitting shorter punch shots focused on making solid contact with the hard foam balls. This drill really helps to dial in ball first contact as you’re not worried about a specific distance or pin - just making contact. Of course as I can hit from varied lies, not two shot setups are exactly perfect replicating being on the course. -

As many have already said. Without seeing your swing it's really hard to know for sure what's causing your issue. I will say I had similar results way back in the early 2000's. My irons were okay, but my driver kept producing ugly, worm-burning duck hooks that were impossible to play. The golf coach I had at the time (honestly not as good as my current coach, but not terrible). Helped me with the simplest solution possible. At the time I was coming way off the ball to the trail side during my back swing and then going way past the ball on my swing. My head was moving like 18 inches. It was ugly. (Both my head and my movement. 😜) When I saw it on video I was shocked how bad it looked. It was relatively easy to tame though after I saw it. The point of that is not that you should think that's the same problem you are having. The point of that is that you should get some quality video of your swing. Let us know how you get on. Good luck. -

Hmmm, I think people would do well to move away from this kind of thinking. Specifically, two things: That we "pull" the butt of the club forward toward a wall anywhere near the front leg. That we "maintain" or "hold" the wrist angles. Both of those are closer to the opposite of what we do in the golf swing.
