Hi this is my first post in the golf forum so be kind to me.

I have a natural draw, and when everything is working properly i hit the ball fairly consistently with all of my irons. I bought some old titleist 962's last summer and using them has really improved my ball striking.

The problem i've been having is that randomly throughout the round i struggle with my grip and can't seem to get my hands in the right position. It just doesn't feel right when i'm looking down at the ball. Invariably this will result in me snap hooking the ball left and ruining an otherwise decent round.

Has anyone got on any drills that could help me?

your grip will not make you snap hook the ball, your arms are a mile ahead of your hips and thats why you are snap hooking it

Usually the opposite is true, you snap hook when you get stuck too far behind.

OP, it is so hard to teach the grip in words. Whether you grip strong or weak, the L and R hand fingers should pull gently apart as the L and R hands push gently together.

if you fire your hips early you block slice it
