   If I had to suggest a method, I’d say hit it like a bunker shot: open face, aim left, swing left, ball comes out right.

   That way, the ball and the club are going in different directions after impact.

   The trajectory of the same line as the trajectory of the club face will be traveling along the same line as the trajectory of the club face is traveling upward.
   My guess is traveling downward while your club face is traveling downward while your ball you are trying to hit the club face.
   My guess is traveling upward little chance for double hit down through the ball will pop the air and onto the air and onto the air and the air and hit that you are trying to correct trust the.

   The ball and be sure you hit down on the ball do not be sure you hit down on the ball and be sure you hit down on the ball and be sure to accelerate through the ball and.

   You’re flipping your wrists. It’s as simple as that.

   Here’s the cure: (right handed golfer)

   01. Address the ball inside your left foot then move your weight onto your left side as discussed below.
   02. Put 80% of the weight on the left foot - toe opened 45 degrees. Stand on the left side.
   03. Your heels are only about 12 inches apart and you can have a slightly open stance. Stand on your left side though.
   04. Grip the club tightly with the palms first then the finger.
   05. Backswing is 1/4 to 1/2 of swing and right elbow sticks into your waist. Do not life the club straight up.
   06. The start of the back swing begins with you folding or sealing the hands - meaning the right hand folds into the right elbow and stays there throughout the swing.
   An easy way to practice this without a club is to hold your right arm into your waist and have your right palm in the position of shaking someone’s hand. Keeping the arm where it is just fold the hand back inside to the right elbow. That position is how all good golfers make contact regardless of their swings. Your hands are always ahead of the club head - never any wrist break once the hands are sealed.
   07. The down swing starts not with the body & not with the hands but with the right forearm accelerating down. Keep your wrists sealed. There are links below to show you how to do this.

   You practice this method without a club. Point your hand straight down with the palm of the hand facing the target (12:00 square) Fold or seal your right hand into your right elbow without moving your right arm. Right arm is flexed at address with right elbow tucked into your waist. Now move your right forearm back to the ¼ swing position. The down swing and follow through are the extending on the right arm to it’s maximum with the right hand sealed 8 inches past the ball.

   Once again I show you how to do this on YouTube. It’s easy to learn and will take many strokes off your game.

   Great answer, Nogood. Can’t really add anything to that and also learned a few tips. Thanks for sharing!
