When I come over the top, it's obvious that I'm bringing my hands through slow. My hips fire, but my hands lag and the clubhead turns over after impact. This means left. LEFT. I hit a draw, and my miss is a pull draw and deep. My timing is off with my hips firing early, which lags my hands. But, my clubhead speed is fast, so I end up pulling it over.

I've work very hard to correct a push. I worked 2 summers to get to the point now where I can hit a draw with any club in my bag. If I hit a slice/push, it's because I'm lazy.

When my driving is on, I can almost swing blindfolded. Pick a spot, hit it, pick up the tee. But when i'm off, it's because my hands are slow. Not rolling over as much, but more that the clubhead is ahead of my hands when the face meets the ball. And I know it instantly.

My cure for this is to intentionally hit a fade. I come accross the ball and hit a low cut. Then, I know how far off I am and meet inbetween.

I use a really stiff shaft, so I don't have much "NV" lag. I like to feel the entire club through the swing. I hate - HATE - losing the clubhead on the way down, so the rebar shafts appeal to me. But, if you're slow with the hands, you're done.
