Stop Blocking Your Drives!

Watching your drive sail high and off to the right can be a very helpless feeling. Because you know that as soon as you start trying to correct it, that’s when you get the surprise duck hook from too much flip.

A block is a type of slice that shares only one thing in common – the face of the club is open at impact. Generally blockers come from the inside, sometimes too much. If you consistently block it right as your miss, you’re probably coming in pretty shallow too, as opposed to a garden variety slice where the golfer is very steep (vertical) coming into the ball.

In this case the handle of the club is not tracking along its optimal elliptical curve, and the clubhead is simply responding to it. And the only obvious way to fix it is by rolling the face over at the last instant. Now the face of the club goes open to shut abruptly, making a straight shot hard to time.
