the Hands

I am a slicer. I thought I was, but like the old asthma, ball slicing never go away. I may able to suppress the symptom, but it never disappears.

While the right side produces the source to power, control of ball flights, swing plane, it is the left hand (forward) that determines the direction, the ball spins, the follow-through.

Holding the left grip too tight, I would have exerted too much force on the whole left arm which will prevent the arms to fold in at the elbow, this would lead to an wide open arm-pit, if not a chicken-wing follow through.

Exerting too soft force on the left hand, the right hand may overpower the left side, causing a premature hand supination. Right arm will cross the left arm from above, leads to a closed face or a too flat follow through.

Bending forward on the left wrist may cause club face to increase in loft, shortening the distance if not a thinned or skulled shot.

Left hand and arm, is in the driver seat of my golf swing, which has been unfortunately put in a passive role all this time.
