How do you have your left hand on the grip? If you "over bend" it will "arch" your left wrist. BUT if you have your left hand strong and you have a "visually" flat left wrist it's going to result in a shut face.

BUT there are plenty of cats have won Majors with a shut face.

So you gotta figure out do you want to fix it or not . . .

What do your bad shots do?

Basically you want to bend your right wrist enough to get the butt end of the club to be in-line with your left forearm. Stick a straightened coat hanger in the butthole (somebody please knock this one outta the joint) . . . see how your left wrist and your right wrist have to look in order to get the butt to line up with your arm.

That's how the Left Arm Flying Wedge works . . . BUT . . . there are plenty who have done other stuff . . .see below.

Here's "weak" grip "in-line" face



Here's "strong" grip "in-line" face (note the bend to keep it in line)


Here's "strong" grip arched "shut" (note the butt and the left arm OUT OF LINE)
