Heel Shots

Heel shots, scoobies, go rights, or the dreaded "S" word are caused by one
thing -- "coming over the top." Coming over the top or swinging across
your downward swingpath is perhaps the most common swing fault in golf. The
path or arc of the golf swing should be circular (about 45 degrees) on the
backswing and a little less circular (about 43 degrees) on the downswing. That
variance in plane is called swinging inside. A great cure for coming over the
top is to let your right shoulder (for R/H players) come UNDERNEATH your
chin on your downswing. You may also feel that you are hitting the ball (in
baseball terms) to right field. Dropping your right shoulder will free up the
club to extend out toward your target and eliminate the possibility of Mr.
Scoobie!
