This is an aide memoir for me. I'll be back here (I'm sure of it!).
I've been fighting a pull hook. Causes:
1. Swinging too much in to out /
2. Clubface pointing left at impact \
So I have \ / going on and I need it to be more ][. Narrowing the angles.
The remedy for 1. Place a shoe / headcover about 1 foot ahead of the ball, about 6" to the right. Consciously try and hit a slice, swinging across the ball. If you hit the shoe, you are still swinging too much in to out.
The remedy for 2 for me is a bit harder. I find that by relaxing my grip and swinging slow back and pause, I have a better chance of being square. By keeping toe of the club in the air halfway back, rather than clubface pointing towards the ground helps too.
Heres some material to help.

Also this is good - The flop shot driver at 2.43!

Get club toe up during backswing at 3.00

I was at the range last night and this all is good. I was bombing it, even with a little cut!!
I'm back!!!
