Outside in path and starting right?

Skeeter · July 13

For whatever reason i have gotten the worse case of driver yips.

Driver has always been my best weapon.

On my GCQuad I am getting slightly outside in path (2 ish degrees) and start line is also right slightly.

Im baffled how the club can be traveling left but still starting right.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Club face wide open. Have to address why.

Chasing distance I am experimenting with a ladies flex “fake auto flex” shaft. Is there any way that is resulting in crazy open face?

Monte you probably won’t remember but I have attended a couple of your clinics. I’m a VERY large person (350 lbs) and getting inside path was always a challenge due to the simple fact that my stomach gets in the way.

Have always been so straight albeit short with my driver but this case of pushes are driving me insane.

What happens when you use a normal shaft?

Shaft could be part of the problem but it’s a swing issue

A toe strike can start a ball right as well even if path is slightly left. Whats the ball do once it starts right, does it curve either way?

The ball flight laws… Ball starts mostly where the face is pointing, curves away from the path (relative to the start line).

Makes sense. Good shots are tight draws. Bad shots are pushes. They don’t curve a ton just off the planet straight right.

I have resigned to hitting my mini driver which is still dead straight for me.

If you're a righty, and your path is left, then they're either pull-draws or gear effect draws or something is off.

The Quad is a tremendous tool. I'd recommend spending some time learning how to use it, what the numbers truly mean, how they translate to the ball flight, etc.
