| You're right, your hands could be faster than your body. I have this problem too and it causes me to slice like mad though, not hook. All depends on the angle of the club face when you hit the ball.
Check to make sure that you aren't shifting your weight to your back foot. That will cause the clubface to close too early and cause the hook. Also a very strong grip on the club can do the same thing.
For the actual swing, get it up in the air in the backswing. If you tend to take the club straight back and flat instead of in a circular motiion, the club face hits the ball more closed than it should be more likely than not.
I'd say your best bet is to hit the range and try one thing at a time. If you try 5 different things at once you're going to get confused, frustrated, and nothing will work. I solved a great deal of my slicing problem by just slowing my swing down. I lost about 30 yards on my drives but it also cut out about 75% of my slices (and saved me a good number of Pro-V1x balls from going into the woods, lake, road, etc.)
Good luck! |
