i need help toi stop pulling the ball ocasionally it would to away bu some times it also goes to a pull-hook and i think i am releasin the club TOO EARLY but HELP ME OUT

WHAT CAN I DO

Thanks and Aloha from Hawaii!

A pull is caused when you come over the top and hit it square. The outside in swing path will make the ball start left and if you released the club properly, will continue to go left.

The fix is to make sure you start up on the correct plane. If your take-away starts to the inside, you cant possibly drop the club in the "slot" since you're already inside of it, so you come over the top to compensate. If your take-away is correct, if you stop your backswing with the clubhead at 9 o'clock, the club should be pointing straight back on a line parallel to the target line. Too far inside and you risk a pull.

From there, the wrists cock and your torso rotates to the top. At the top of your swing both your hands should be visible by your right ear (for righthanders).

To start the downswing, merely drop your hands about 8-12 inches downward. Your club's now in the slot and your right elbow should be just ahead of your right hip. Accelerate throught the hitting area while maintaining your spine angle and allow the club to pull you around to your follow through.

Hope that helps.
