DOCTORING YOUR GOLF
BY CARY MIDDLECOFF
PATIENTS COMPLAINT.
Hooking is beyond me-"

PATIENTS COMPLAINT,
Hooking is beyond me-"
DIAGNOSIS: Just a couple
of gimmicks needed.
TREATMENT: Generals
speaking, a hook is a nuisance
But there are times when a de-
liberate hook is just about the
golfers only Salvation-as when
he needs to bend the ball around
trees or some other obstacle.
The first step in setting up a
deliberate hook is to change to
a hook grip" This simply
means turning the left hand
back to the right on the shaft
so that you can see the first
three knuckleS, instead of two
as prescribed for the straight
shot; also turn the right hand
back the same way by about
the same amount.
Then determine to swing into
the ball along an exaggeratedly
inside-out pattern. That is, you
want to hit around the ball in
stead of straight through it.
Also, you want to let the hands
roll over as you come into the
ball-which will be made easy
by the change in the grip.
The player who can hook the
ball on demand is a far more
resourceful player than one
