Hello all, this is my first post. I'd like opinions on reading divots, particularly with short/mid irons. I've noticed lately that on a good portion of my iron shots, the divots are actually curved to the hook side of my target line. That is, you can definitely see a radius in the divot that starts in front of the ball and curves a bit toward my feet. The shots may be well struck, but they are usually pulled by 5 to 10 degrees.
The club must be swinging from the hands (as opposed to from the shoulder)at the time that the ground is entered, which explains the curving divot. But what I'm not sure of is whether this is indicative of a plane misalignment or a release problem.
