Pulling Shots Left??????????
 
I setup at fix, and open the face some. I just try and drive the ball into the ground, I hit it very solid, but my shots are pulls and pull draws.

Any advice?

Monitor the HANDS. Check for proper HINGE ACTION. Hit the Right Inside Quadrant of the ball. Try the INSIDE-OUT CUT SHOT DRILL... if this applies to you.

Start with these.

Move your ball a tad further forward at address and let the down and out happen before you start on the in and up.

"Pulls": "inside-in" clubhead path with the clubface square (to the target line) at impact and close at separation.

"Pull draws": "inside-out" clubhead path with the clubface square (to the target line) at impact and close at separation.

"Straight": "inside-in" clubhead path with the clubface open (to the target line) at impact and square at separation.

Check your right forearm position at fix and also your shoulder line. Chances are good you either have shoulders that are too open, or a right forearm that is too high. Both can be caused by a right hand grip that is too much on 'top' of the club. Confirm your right wrist is level at fix and ensure you are not cocking your right wrist with chip, pitch, punch.

Always let impact fix be your guide and you won't be too far off ;)

edz is right check those.if that doesnt help check these out.ball to far forward likely cause or if you are on plane with shaft and right arm it is a clubface pull.go through 3-f-5.i dont think having the right hand to far on top will cause a pull.i adjust #3 on top to hit a fade using horitontal hinging,works great.the other thing that might cause a pull in a perfect world of alignments would be to much right arm fanning.check these out and let us know what happens

Ball position was a bit forward, seemed to help some, but the road has lead to some confusion.

When one places there hands at Fix should the left hand be FLV, and the right be BLV, because I think my hands could be turned to much. Maybe my hands are turned to the right to much at fix, could this be a problem? But when I put them in the spot where I think they should be at impact it seems that my grip is weak.

Also I am still having trouble getting my divots to point where I want them. Some are straight, but most are a touch left, and when I see them going alittle left I get freaked out. I am having a hard time gettin down and out. I seem to be more down and in. Could it be that I am so focused on keeping the lag that I spin my up body coming it the ball and pull my arms alittle left? Maybe I should think more about trying to straighten my right arm thoughout the swing does anyone think that would help?

nathan my friend you still seem a little confused.go back to the dowel drills and trace a staight line with your flying wedges.use both hands,then just the right and then just the left.basic motion only.once you can do this then do it with your eyes closed and then open them at the end.then do the same thing with acquired motion and then finally total motion.you are trying to get ahead of yourself.dont even bother with hitting full shots until you can go through each motion as stated.if you want to go play then do not i say do not think of anything but playing golf.
make sure you take all your alignments from 3-f-5.both hands need to be on the same plane.left wrist cocks and the right bends so ge them working together.i beleive i showed you how to do this.anyway i will be coming there in 2 weeks.see ya soon
