Toe shots and crazy hooks galore for a few weeks. Figured out it was my grip and closed at the top, more so half way down and crazy closed at impact. Sorted out the grip and for a brief interlude played quite nicely. Rather than stop there though I have now managed to find the heel/hosel of every club in the bag.
I had one surreal dream-like range session where I hit the best 60 balls I can hit and all relaxed and no swing thoughts at all. Next range session started the same and then the dreaded hosel shots started. Plyaed yesterday and first 9 holes were disastrous and then focussed on making sure I didn't sway and bingo the middle of my irons got a workout but was still heeling the long clubs. Popped to the range afterwards to sort them out and again started to hit the hosel of my irons. Used an empty basket to make sure I wasn't OTT and bingo the middle of the driver and realised my right shoulder was probably forwards and open at address. Sorting that out resulted in everything coming off the middle of every club. Sorted....
Back to the range last night before a committee meeting and some lovely 7 irons followed by another sudden onset of hosel shots. Dammit. Basket in place and improved then used my driver and things clicked into place again although didn't return to the 7 iron. Plan to go to the range today and start with the driver/headcover drill (basket in my case!) and hope that gets a decent swingpath working and then move back to my irons.
So a long tale of woe but a single question really...could toe shots AND heel shots both be caused by the same flaw? Have I been OTT throughout and either closing or opening the club face at impact??
I have 2 important Foursomes matches looming and things aren't looking positive!
I do have a lesson next Tuesday but that's not soon enough for one of the matches...
Any ideas oh wise ones??
