Also know, how do I fix a hook in my iron?
In this regard, why am I hooking the golf ball with my irons? The better player hooks the ball for one primary reason—their swing direction is too much from in to out, or out to the right. As a result, the clubface is closed relative to the path of the clubhead, which causes the ball to start relatively close to the target line and then curve wildly to the left.
Also the question is, how do I stop my iron from pulling hooks?
Likewise, what causes a snap hook with irons? If the clubface is dramatically closed relative to your swing path when you contact the ball, you are going to hit a snap hook. For a right-handed golfer, that means the face is pointing significantly to the left of the path that the club is taking as it moves through impact.

Why am I hooking my drives?
Another popular cause for a hook shot is failing to turn your body all the way through the shot. At that same time, you’re likely not shifting your weight forward. So your body stops turning but the club doesn’t. So as your swing continues, the clubface closes and hits the ball left upon impact.

Why has my slice turned into a hook?
Actually it is a slice or high ball that is caused by too much right hand or right side coming over the top. Hooking, or a drag left ball, is when the right side fails to come through the ball and, at worst, a flip hook is the result.
What kind of grip causes a hook?
The reason a strong grip causes hooks is because it closes the clubface at impact. That said, it is still possible to hit a hook even if your grip is not too strong. The first step in squaring the clubface at impact is to understand what a square face looks like when you set up to the ball.

The duck hook will happen when a player is trying to hit a full, or almost full, shot.

A big, long, powerful swing should create a big, long golf shot, right? Ideally, yes.

Why is my club face closed at the top?
A closed clubface at the top of the swing is when the angle of the clubface is facing more towards the sky. Often times the fix to one or all three swing flaws above begins with creating a slightly closed clubface position at the top of swing.
What hand controls the clubface?
The left hand (the right for southpaws), is responsible for the rotational movement of the golf club, which, in turn, controls the direction of the clubface. To really get a feel for this, grab a club with your left hand and practice rotating your hand so the clubface opens and closes.
