I started Tom’s trading program a week ago. I mainly practiced the motions and the feeling in my apartment all week with my clubs on the rug and some foam balls and marking sticks. Today i went out to the range for the first time. I’m a righty and I was getting decent contact. However most of my balls were all being pulled far left or hooking left. Any idea what this could be coming from, grip, using to much arms? Anyone have the same issue at first or have a recommendation to straighten this out?

Started hitting my irons better, then decided today to play some golf and try to incorporate the lateral hip slide into both my iron and driver swing. It got real ugly! I was hitting the ground behind the ball with my irons, and hitting low snap hooks and even topping my driver shots. only conclusion I can come too is instead of moving laterally with my hips, I was moving my hips left and dropping my right shoulder causing me to bend to the right, and threw my whole swing out of wack. When I got done playing my right side hurt like I'd gotten punched in the side. Sound familiar?
