How To Cure A Golf Hook

 

Author: Anthony Lee
Like Tiger Woods, most golfers may have experienced some of the most common golf hazards such as golf slice and golf hook. Between the two most common golf problems, golf hook is the easiest to deal with.

One of the most effective ways to learn how to cure a golf hook is to learn the different techniques being offered by many golf experts and apply them through a series of practices. To achieve this, you must consider some of the most important factors.

Here's the list:

1. The position of your ball

Most amateur golfers commit golf hook by placing their ball too distant, usually at the back of their stance. Hence, you will tend to keep the ball off the track. You can cure golf hook by placing the ball to the fore. Shifting your ball onwards will keep things in the right path.

2. Your aim or goal

Golf hook usually happens when your clubface may be overly locked. To cure this, you have to change your target by aiming for the opposites. This means that if you are a left-handed person, try to aim for the right, and vice versa. Also, try to unlock your stance slightly, and swing down to the contour of your shoulders.

3. Your grip

If one of your hands is bent extremely distant to the right, you will be vulnerable to a golf hook. To cure this, you should ensure that the "V" shape created by your forefinger and your thumb is pointing within the bounds of your "right shoulder," and not on the outer surface.

Consequently, the amount of strength that you provide with your grip will also contribute to the possibilities of a golf hook. To avoid it, try not to grip the club too tough but not too frail, unless, you have already proven your performance on this type of technique.

The key point here is to hold the club in a way that will enable your hands to go around the grip and in the direction of your goal.

4. The way you swing

If your "backswing" was created extremely on the interior portion of your goal line, you will absolutely make a golf hook caused by the extreme rotation of your shoulders. It is better if you will avoid doing this and concentrate on keeping your ball on the track by making a good backswing.

5. Your stance

Although it may not pose much of a problem, your stance can still affect your way of delivering your ball.
Hence, it is best to maintain a stance that is not too broad or extensive.

These are just some of the tips on curing a golf hook. Memorize them by heart and you will surely improve the way you play your game.
