Fix Your Left Shots in One Check #golf #golfswing #golftips

Cordie Walker of GolfWell explains how to diagnose and fix left-aiming shots for golfers who already maintain a flat lead wrist. The video demonstrates how an overly strong grip or a 'scooping' motion at impact closes the clubface, and provides the solution of increasing forward shaft lean to straighten out the ball flight.

• A flat lead wrist combined with an overly strong grip will likely result in a closed clubface and shots going left.
• Handle position dictates face angle: keeping the handle behind the ball at impact points the face left.
• Forward shaft lean (handle in front of the ball) is a key intervention to open the face and prevent pulling the ball.
• Avoid 'scooping' or stalling the body, as these technical flaws move the handle back and close the face.
