Manzella members and instructors , I am at my wits end how to solve my current swing issue so I thought I would look for some advice from you guys. My backswing is good, club is coming down on a good plane( elbow and not to much in to out) and just before impact it looks as though my right hand slams the club shut and I hit low hooks. This doesn't happen every time but when it does it is ugly and screws me up for a few holes. I was wondering if brian or anyone else had ever seen something like this and how to stop/fix it. Thanks in advance for your answers. Kernitm

The probable cause is that your synchronization is off. You get lazy and don't unwind fast enough. Therefore, your arms and hands take over and voila! EL SNAPPO. Trust me, I am an expert! That is, an expert in having this problem. For me it is pretty much limited to the Driver. When it rears it's ugly head, it wants to do it for several tee shots in a row. For me the solution is to simply say, "Be an Athlete and stop thinking".

What is your left hand doing during this process?

Sounds like you need a little 'toss" therapy.

I cant really feel what my left hand is doing. My body rotation is good, I dont have a lot of lag but do have forward lean at impact. I feel as if my right hand is just taking over and I dont know how to stop it. Thanks for everyones help.

You need to TEACH your right arm what to do.

Here's how:

Hit little pitch shots with right hand only.

Then copy with both hands.

Make FULL practice swings with right hand only, until you can clip a tee and get a good scrape.

Then COPY with both hands.
