Answer 1

Look, chances are that your issue stems from a weak baseball grip. Look at your grip when you address the ball...if you can see the club under your left thumb (or right thumb if you're left-handed), try rotating your hand over the club more (as in, cover the club MORE with your thumb). This will feel strange, but it will keep your club head more square THROUGH the ball. You will find that you have more control because the club will not open up on impact.

IF THIS IS NOT YOUR ISSUE:

You are swinging in an "out-to-in" motion, and connecting closer to the toe of the club. This will cause your ball to make your club open up slightly on impact, and you will strike it to the right every time.

If you are able, video your swing and see if you are coming through the ball on a straight line, and where the ball is impacting your club.

Good luck!!!

The Only way to correct swing flaws is lessons and practice......there are no magic bullets to fix this.  You can get 3,000 bits of advice on here and still be slicing 20 yrs from now.  We cannot see what you are doing during your swing.....Thus we cannot help you fix it.

Answer 4

You have a weak grip most likely dominated by the left hand. So , the instruction received from a great teaching pro some 70 years ago still holds true. When you place your hands on the grip, the Vs formed by the thumbs and forefingers should be pointing to the middle of the right shoulder. This is a neutral grip for hitting a straight ball with an inside to outside swing. If the Vs are on the top side of the grip, this is weak and will tend to make the ball slice to the right since ithe clubface will be open at the point of impact. Conversely, if the Vs formed are pointing to the end of the collarbone or just outside the right shoulder, your grip is strong and should cause your ball to hook left. Work on developing a good swing plane and your problem will most likely disappear.
