I get a hook when I slow things down. Yes, I "spray the ball all over the place" when I try to time the swing to allow the head to catch up and become square at impact. All my steel and titanium shaft clubs hit pretty straight. (Is 200-220 yards using a 3 iron an okay distance?)Newbie4me |
Yes, you've got good distance with your 3i.
Hands in front of the ball is good - you definitely want your hands in front. 4:30 might be a bit much (which indicates some serious clubhead lag). Part of the reason you're slicing is that the clubhead is still open because it's lagged so much. I must have missed that comment (about the flex and lag) earlier - you may want to try a stiffer flex, as this will help your clubhead to keep up with your hands.
