Re: fear of going left
If the problem is a hook then try using the feeling that you are making a Karate chop with the bottom edge of your right hand as you come into impact, this will prevent an early release.Comment

Re: fear of going left
sounds like your swinging out to in to try and keep the ball from going right.. funnily enough this does the opposite and slices the ball and it will always go right..
when standing over the ball, look at it like a clock face. top of the ball (furtherest away from you is 12 o'clock), closest to you is 6 o'clock, etc.
try imaging a spot on th ball at 4 o'clock, you want to aim for that. which will also be hitting the ball in-to-out.
at the moment you'll be hitting the ball at a 2 o'clock location which will pull the ball to the left, then swing right.
if all else fails, see an instructor. you have a really bad habit and if you don't get yourself out of this quickly you will find it hard to get out of... from personal experience it's taken me about a year to get out of that swing after having it for 2 years.Comment

Re: fear of going left
i think we would really need to see a video and setup of the guy swinging. there are so many things it could be, it's hard to say 1 thing or another.
mattney can you get a video of your swing for us

Re: fear of going left
thanx for the reply ive only started talkin on this a few weeks back and i wouldnt know how to put a video on to this im not too good on these but i swing in to out my divots goin right but i always feel like im goin to go left before i hit the ball thats why i think i end up swinging in to out to counteract the going left thing and end up hitting loads of shots rightOriginally posted by AussieGolfBoy View Posti think we would really need to see a video and setup of the guy swinging. there are so many things it could be, it's hard to say 1 thing or another.
