I've always played with a little fade & off 5, which can easily turn into a big fade at times, and always had difficulty consistently squaring the face. My best takeaway move is a feel where I keep my wrists 'stiff' ie don't move them until they naturally start to cock just past 1st parallel. From this video I can now see that doing that move keeps the cup in my left wrist created at address throughout the swing hence the varying open face at impact. Tks Russell, really good video this one. I'm going to explore your 1:1 tuition to see if it suits what I'm after. Tks again 🙂

Is there a downside to having the club in line with the left forearm at address? Thank you for all the wonderfull videos!!

Having a bit of a stronger grip has been working quite well for me w/ driver, but w/ irons, a have a tendency to want to pull my shots about 5yrds to the left. I'm wondering if I try to go more neutral to maybe a very slight strong grip if that will bring my accuracy more online?? Thx for the video Russ 👍

I personally do a practice swing with every club and look to see how closed the face is at impact. Then recalibrate - more neutral or stronger - based on how it looks. My longer clubs I tend to need to go a bit stronger. Might help you in your rounds.

It's the opposite for me, mate. Strong grip with my irons go straighter and if I copy that same grip for my driver, I get high (unplayable) pulls.

Beware the difference between your driver shafts and your iron shafts. For example, your driver graphite shaft may be different from your iron shafts. Thus, the lag/kick may be different between the two, changing the squaring action at the bottom of your swing.

@@hgibson2448 that's crazy you say that gibson, cause your exactly right. My driver has a graphite shaft and irons are steel, thx for that info sir. 👍
