How To Cure That Golf Duck Hook in 4 Easy Steps
In this lesson we are going to focus on “How To Cure That Golf Duck Hook”. If you have a bad golf hook that is adding a lot of extra strokes to your game you know how frustrating they can be. While most people out there are slicing the ball, you have the opposite problem and are playing on the other side of the fairway.
The good news is that the golf hook is not difficult to cure. Implement these 4 golf tips and your golf hook will be cured in no time. In order to correct the golf hook you need to make sure you swing the club from the outside in.
1. Loosen Your Grip – Playing with a grip that is too strong is common among people who hook the ball. If you simply rotate your hands around the grip towards the target, it will make it much more difficult for the face of the club to be “closed” at impact. Now don’t take this tip too far, you need to test each grip to see which works best for you. If you are certain that you are playing with a weak grip then move on to the next tip.
2. Set the ball forward in your stance – Players who have a golf slice tend to position the ball forward in their stance. Since we hook the ball, this wouldn’t be a bad thing for us to do. So, let’s copy them. (It doesn’t matter if you have a slice or a hook, if you want to correct it, the first thing you should do is learn how to do the opposite.) Setting the ball forward in your golf stance will get you well on you way to curing that nasty hook.
3. Aim to the left (to the right if left handed) of the target – Start out with an open stance to the target. This will put that clockwise rotation on the ball that you are looking for. Just open your stance a little bit, and swing along the line of your shoulders.
4. Finish With Your Weight On Your Front Foot – More than likely, this is the tip that will have the best chance of curing that golf hook for good. Many hooks are caused by golfers who finish their swing with some of their weight on their back foot. Doing this will force you to come around the ball with a closed clubface. So practice finishing with all of your weight forward to get rid of that nasty golf hook.
