STOP PULLING YOUR GOLF SHOTS

Golf instructor Mark Crossfield (AskGolfGuru) explains why golfers often pull their high-lofted clubs and how to fix it. He demonstrates how low hand positions can aim the clubface left and introduces a lead-hip drill to encourage body-driven rotation over hand-flipping.

• High-lofted clubs (like 9-irons) naturally point left if your hands are too low at address or impact.
• Try a 'taller' posture and hand position to help straighten out pulls with short irons.
• Use your body rotation, not your hands, to bring the clubface through impact to avoid over-closing the face.
• If the pull only happens with lofts and not flatter-faced clubs, it is likely a lie-angle or posture issue.
