Open Clubface At Address--Larry Nelson Style

Should the grip be taken with the clubhead at impact alignment or impact separation alignment??? Thanks



The Grip should be taken at Impact Fix. Normally, the Clubface alignment willbe slightly Open. At separation, it will be Square.

Interestingly, I discussed this very point on the practice tee today with LarryNelson. He told me he begins each day with the Clubface 'slightly Open.' Ipeered over his Left Shoulder -- his Hands were not quite at Fix -- to seeexactly how 'Open' that was. It wasn't much, but it was definitely Open.

"It has to be Open," he said. "Otherwise, you'll have to 'blockit' [no Roll] as you go through" (to keep from Pulling or Hooking theShot).

I then asked him how he determined the 'how much Open,' and he told me that "itchanges every day!"

"I start from 'there' and then, if the shot goes straight, I leave it'there.' If the shot goes right, I 'close' it a bit until it goesstraight."

Well, all rightee then!
