Understanding the Problem
The Issue: A golf hook happens when the clubface is closed relative to your swing path at impact, creating sidespin that curves the ball left. While some golfers prefer a controlled draw, an uncontrolled hook leads to lost balls and penalty strokes.
Common Causes:
- Closed clubface at impact
- Inside-to-out swing path (excessive)
- Strong grip
- Overactive hands through impact
- Poor club sequencing
- Ball position too far back
