In this section, John Lubin makes an introduction about the common error of some golfers to slice the ball or send it off to the right because the club face is open when it hits the ball on impact.

In this section, John Lubin will teach you how to work the hands so that the club face is closing when coming into the ball. Get a golf glove and stick a tee through the Velcro. Make sure the tee is pointing straight at the back of your left hand. This training aid will serve as a guide that will show you what the club face is doing on impact. On the backswing, make sure that training aid points slightly up in the air. On release, the training aid should point down at the target on impact and then on the ground coming through.

In this section, John Lubin reviews the proper technique to make sure that the club face is closing coming through the ball on impact.
