Regripping club
Recently I purchased a Taley Mind Set, and it has been very helpful teaching me the feel of a FLW. As I have been more successful and comfortable with a FLW, another issue has come up. Funny how that happens! It started with 20-30 yard pitches: they were flying very low and with a lot of hook spin. Trying to figure out why this was happening, I figured out that I have been setting up with a very closed face at address. At adjusted address, the face of my clubs, all of them, face to the left of the plane line. Here is the issue: I realize that this hook-face at address is what I am comfortable with; and I found that when I corrected the face at address, I would unconsciously re-grip the club in the backswing to the hook face again. It seemed that when I took a practice swing or two to monitor my alignments, by the time I went back to address, my closed face had returned. It was an incredible effort for me not to re-grip the club on the backswing, and when I did not, I had a very high tension level which made it difficult to swing on plane. Can anyone give me some advice on how to fix this problem of re-gripping, or on whether I am thinking about this issue correctly? Thanks for all your help.
