Default hook

hi Bobby -
after a lay off I seem to have developed a bit of a hook - at times its one that Mike Tyson would be proud of - tried a few things but science keeps getting in the way - any suggestions ?

appreciate any help you can provide

Graeme

#1 no knukles of the left hand at address
#2 hold on twice as tight with the left hand as normal
#3 aim LEFT
#4 ripe it
#5 if it is the tee shots "tee it lower".

thanks bobby - say off the tee- a left pull varying to about 25 degrees - fairway say 120m forward then 50m to the left (definite hook). I've been looking at a number of your tips on the purepoint website- sort of thinking its how I may be starting the foreswing - maybe out to in ?
