Was toying around at the range the other day...been struggling with an overly flat swing and coming from way inside. Everything was hooking. I thought maybe I'm hooding the club at address (although it looked square). I opened th club face to what I thought would produce a high floating cut took a relaxed swing and whoa! straight with a hint of draw at the end and longer than I would usually hit that club. Is it possible that what I thought was square at set up was acutally closed or hooded? Wasn't it Ben Hogan who said " take every instinct you have to hit a golf shot and reverse it and you might wind up with an acceptable shot" of course I'm paraphrasing.
