Hey, i'm a high school golfer and in the beginning of the season i was nailing the ball down the middle about 270-280 every time. Now i'm hooking the ball about 40% of the time off the tee. Any ideas of whats going on?

More than 1 thing can cause this. Stance for 1-To strong a grip for abother-Go to driving range and try and fade it--then hit it straight.
You night not be shifting weight-so your hanging back and turning the club over--get on your front foot at inpact-get off your back foot you will crush it.
Billy Casper was on tv the other day and has fought a bad hook in his career. He said it was because his back shoulder(right for him)was coming around instead of staying underneath--go pratice-good luck

75% of the time my ball slices to the right off the tee?
Also, I noticed then when I strike the ball with my driver, it has been continuously noted that on the bottom of my driver, there are ball marks, which means I am missing the the sweet spot by about an ich and-a-half. Do I put the tee up higher or lower? In other words, I can't seem to hit the ball dead center? How do I correct this.?

| fade, slice on drive |

I have a problem with my drives. No matter what I seem to do the ball will travel straight from moment of contact and drift widly right in the later stages of flight. Some people consider it a fade and others a slice.
I've tried teeing ball up higher, lower. Bringing my right hand futher towards my left shoulder. Hitting the ball just inside and just outside my left foot.
Please help???????
Andrew
