Styles, despite the fact I should know better............Im still subject to Steering. Maybe everyone is.

Im trying to de-code it, find its pattern of multiple compensations..........the first fix is always the Delivery Line.......inside-out impact for balls played back of low point, Clubshaft. Then I fix the Clubface, with Horizontal Hinging. When the effortless compressions come back I start working on Lag , Clubhead. Then I try to forget it all and play by feel, Lag Pressure. The goal is to make the ball (which is a tyrant that inspires steering) and the club disappear and just play with Lag Pressure and the Delivery Line or the Aiming Point. It's elusive but divine.

The process is ongoing, a never ending cycle. But knowing the pattern is making the cycle way, way shorter. Knowing the ball flight laws has really helped too. What I used to ascribe to a clubhead path is now a face angle thing......making corrrections is far more "cause and effect" now. My intentional hook has never been better too. It seems amazing to me that we could all have played the game for so long with the ball flight laws backwards!
