Re: problems with keeping the club face closed

SO, now my quandary is whether or not to open and then shut the clubface, or keep it shut and keep honing that swing.

Obviously if I'm trying to score, I should be keeping it shut at this point, right?
Sounds good to me. I would like to see what your right elbow does if you keep the clubhead square to the plane throughout. I kinda do things as described in the hoop drill I reference above. Seems the main thing we should avoid is flaring the club open right away.
