I Am having trouble hitting my driver at times i hook the ball or bomb it straight.?
Question:My problem is this lately if have played good golf with an open stance just my stance not my shoulders I play the ball back a bit this allows me to make better contact and free up my release because my left leg is not in the way. I can't do that with my woods I have to play with a square stance and the ball has to be off my left foot. With the ball forward I believe it only makes hooking more possible because the club has more time to close
what can I do I cant play the driver in the middle of may stance
because its just not right maybe their is another problem? I either hit hit long or duck hook it with my driver my irons are great
i hit them staright or fade them but my woods are a mystery
because of my stance what can I do to hit the woods as good as my irons without altering my stance?

Graphite or steel shaft? I'm not a long hitter.?
you are hitting a pull hook with your woods. this is caused by an out to in swing with a closing club face. to fix this your first move on the downswing should be down with your left arm and not out. fell as though you are going to drive the back of your left hand into your right inner thigh and then release as normal. you should do this with all of your clubs.just make sure to clear your hips so that you don't actually slap your leg. this will produce a little right to left action.
It will start right of your target and then move back to your target.

I think you might be over-gripping on your woods because you're worried about hooking, and maybe not following through on your release (and bringing it inside). I would agree, if you're missing sometimes and the stance feels right, I wouldn't change that.One more really odd trick you can do is while you're focusing on the ball during your swing, try to focus on the "front" of the ball. If you're a righty, that would be the left side of the ball. Mentally, it will help you swing through it and hopefully get your club to stay open slightly longer.
Try that out. Best of luck!
Is it possible to reshaft a carbon composite golf club?
Hitting the long bomb is all about tempo and grip pressure. You don't have to swing very hard at all. It sounds as if you're inconsistent b/c of inconsistent grip pressure and swing speed. Try aiming to a spot 150 yards along your target line and try to hit it there. It sounds crazy, but your ball will fly much farther than that 150 target. This will slow your swing down and decrease your grip pressure.Do Penn Golf Balls sell retail?
Think of the ball is in the centre of a clock. 3 to 9 o'clock is the target line. Swing from between 3 and 4 o'clock to between 9 and 10 o'clock.Slow things down when you start hooking. Also, stay down longer. Works like a charm.
