Thanks Neil,
Of course you are right about strong / weak grips.
I meant moving to the right not left....my lazy brain again !
I am so interested in your post.
When I read it I think it was written about me, except the part where you found a solution and a happy ending.
I have always thought that a neutral grip was best and to play good golf that was a prerequisite.
I used to play with a powerful draw but now after restarting golf after a 5yr "rest" & now that I've turned 40yr I think my poor technique cannot be compensated by youth & ability !
So now I want to correct many flaws, engrained over 20years of golf.
Rotation at impact is a big one and avoiding flipping wrists.
When I try this I tend to get a weak, choppy cut/block.
Strenthening my grip may be a solution.....what do you think ?
