Rotate the grip (the rubber thing on the club that says Golf Pride, not the hands to club). A closed or open face at address will hit different sides of the ball. Then, the stance has to be adjusted to allow for the curved flight of the ball. A "pure" Swinger could move the ball in the stance, but from what I recall in the audio tapes, Homer preferred using the manipulated clubface, even for swinging.
