Fixing yourself on the fly

[Marten]

How do you fix a fault right away with out any aids (mirror/video/friends)?

Example;
Your on the course and the ballflights starts straight and then turns right.
This would mean that you're outside-in with a square (relative to the target line) clubface, right?
What would you do to fix this? Checking backswing? Changing the ball position? Checking your grip?

And how would you fix a
Push-slice
Push
Pull
Pull Hook
Hook
etc.

Do you have a methodology for any faults or do you face them separately?

Hmmm...

Correct.

What would you do to fix this? Checking backswing? Changing the ball position? Checking your grip?

Add arm and hand twistaway, and a sharer backswing turn.

And how would you fix a
Push-slice?

Less laid-off, more right arm across the body through impact.

Push

Right shoulder more toward left foot then the right foot through impact.

Pull

Sharper turn going back, right shoulder in right hip pocket coming down.

Pull Hook

Left thumb further under at the top, hips more open at impact.

Hook

Left Thumb more under at the top, hip/hands/clubhead srquence through impact.

Do you have a methodology for any faults or do you face them separately?

I've got whatever you want.

Less movement to the right on the back swing with the hips.

Feel the shoulder going more out and around rather than so far down
