Thereof, how do I stop hitting a hook?
The fix for the hook would be to open your stance slightly and play the ball more forward in your stance, opposite the left shoulder, so that your swing direction is a little bit more toward the target. (You don't want to swing too much to the left with your driver or you'll start over-fading the ball.)
what causes a hook? A true hook in golf is a shot that starts out to the right of your target (for right handed players) or starts straight, but then curves back to the left. This is caused by a combination of club path through impact and face alignment at impact.
Also, why am I hitting a pull hook?
Pull hooks results from an over-the-top (or outside-to-inside) swing path paired with a closed, quickly rotating clubface. By contrast, slices occur when the same outside-in path is paired with an open clubface, imparting left-to-right spin.
Why am I hooking the ball with my irons?
The upper body obstructs or interferes with the club's path to the ball. The most common reason players get stuck is, they don't keep the arms and club in front of the chest as they turn back and through. When the club trails the upper body on the way down, the hands have to flip the clubhead over to recover.
