Pulling the Ball Left? Fix Your Delivery (Not Your Swing)
Matt Baker explains that pulling the ball left is primarily a delivery problem caused by the right shoulder getting too high in the transition. By adjusting the shoulder's descent, golfers can neutralize their club path and prevent the face from arriving closed at impact. This Malaska-style approach emphasizes 'feel' over technical swing rebuilding to produce immediate results on the range.
Pulls and pull-hooks are often caused by a 'high' right shoulder during the delivery phase.
A high right shoulder forces the club into an over-the-top path with a closed face.
The swing mechanics may be sound, but the 'delivery' of those mechanics determines the start line.
Focus on the feel of the right shoulder position to square the club path naturally.
Changing the delivery is often faster and more effective than trying to change the entire swing plane.
