Hidy Hi! Yeah been away for a while but I'm back on the golfing trail now.

Sounds like a similar mixture of shots that I used to have, and still occasionally suffer from.

From your description through the clubs it sounds pretty much like you're applying the same swing through the bag. We all know that the flatter the clubhead the more sidespin we impart. Your short irons might well be going straight (meaning to the target) because you actually aim slightly right of target and pull them straight. Add this to a longer iron with a flatter face you've got more sidespin, so you hold it off, opening the face and cutting it in an attempt to stop pulling it.

Get down to your driver and hitting a consistently straight one is even harder with compensations. The pull happens when you're aiming right of target and try to square the clubface, pulling it left slightly across your body (will automatically happen as the balls further forward in the stance). Combine holding it off and approaching more from the inside (to stop pulling it) and you've got the pushy cut, time it right and it goes straight.

Any of the above can come from steepness in an attempt to pull the ball back online from a closed stance.

In the interest of keeping it simple pror to seeing a video, as an off - the- cuff - guessing - generalisation (! ) check your alignement through the bag!

If you do find you're closed, when you open up with your current swing you'll starting pulling your short irons left, cutting your longer irons straight and pulling your driver miles left (! ) or pushing it straight!! Then you can address your steepness of plane!!!!!!!!!

Easy!....................

But please don't take me too seriously! It's all guesswork from information provided!
