Finding a too common fault of pushing shots to the right While playing and eve on the driving range. I use a Garmin Approach R10 on the range. I am seeing an open club face of up to 10 degrees. Club path is generally a bit to the right normally but not as severe as the club face. any suggest are appreciated.

Here is a reply that I just added to another post.
Here is what worked for me. Go to the Ball Flight Fixes section. Then go to Slices (and Pulls). Watch all of the videos. After I watched the videos I went to the range and went thru the setup, takeaway, top of backswing and downswing drills. After doing that I was still pushing / fading my irons and driver. I went back and rewatched the videos and realized I didn’t do any of the weight shift drills. So I went back to the range and just did the weight shift drills. It worked! I wasn’t shifting my weight correctly. Of the three videos the Fixing Your Slicing Downswing - Keep the Weight Moving Forward - Fixes the Flip and Fall Back drill worked the best. Both my irons and driver straighten out. Good luck!
Hi Rick - Ball flight laws dictate that a straight push is the result of an impact condition wherein the clubface matches the in-to-out downswing path. If the face is open to that same path at impact, then a push-fade or push-slice will occur (depending on the degree of openness), and if it is closed to that path them you'll get a push-draw or push-hook. So based on what you are saying about your path and face you ought to be experiencing a push-fade? Is that the case?
