Introduction- Your Hidden Tendencies
Swing improvement is a life-long process for every serious golfer.
As soon as you become skilled enough to spot & fix specific swing issues, other small items that need tweaking will readily become apparent.
And once you fix those areas, your skill level will increase & your trained eye will start noticing previously unknown issues. This never-ending process of refining a swing is what keeps the sport exciting. In other words, your learning process is continual & there is always room to sharpen your skills (Even professional golfers hire coaches to help them fix potential swing problems).....
Clubface Alignment
Doing something incorrectly in one place can create errors elsewhere
in your swing. Keep this in your mind during your practice & time
on the course. It's important to take a "whole picture" view of your
swing. Problems you are experiencing may be being caused elsewhere.
The alignment of the clubface is one of the most important factors in determining the direction of the shots you take. Clubface alignment is critical. If the face of your club looks to the left or right of your target when you make impact, it may also cause errors in your swing path & precise angle of attack. It can also impair your clubhead speed, ever so slightly.....
A. Finding Out:
First, you must keep in mind that the less lofted the face of a golf club is, the less backspin it will add to the ball (this is the reason why a long-iron will cause the ball to fly much lower than a pitching-wedge will).
So, how do I know if my alignment is off?
Let's find out.
For a true reading of your clubface's alignment at impact, hit some shots with your driver. Any ball curvature indicates how you may be delivering the clubface at impact.
The shots are "looking right" of target (open) if they mostly curve to the right & they are "looking left" of target (closed) if the shots mostly curve to the left.
To assess your clubhead path, hit some shots with your 9 iron.
Because the strong backspin created by its steeply-pitched face negates most of the sidespin, the shots should head toward their starting direction. Little to no curvature should be observed.
If they start mostly to the left, your clubhead path obviously is from "out-to-in." If they mostly start to the right, you are probably swinging from "in-to-out."

Question: But why are my driver shots finishing to the right & my short-irons finishing to the left?
Answer: The interaction of backspin & sidespin is the answer.

The truth is that the attack on the ball ­ out-to-in & open-faced ­ remains constant. But, as you move up into the loftier clubs, the countering of sidespin by the increasing backspin simply disguises the clubface error.
What it comes down to is: The ball's flight direction will indicate what you need to improve to become a better player. Revisit this minireport if you get confused & read it again.
B. When The Clubface Faces Right
Delivering the clubface looking to the right of the target at impact ("open" in golf terminology) may be caused by the clubhead
crossing from outside to inside across the target line in an instinctive attempt to prevent shots from finishing to the right.
Swinging across the target line from out-to-in can create either a too steep (downward) or too shallow (upward) hit. This incorrect angle of attack can result in both fat & thin shots also.
And, the awkwardness resulting from incorrect angles can inhibit free & forceful swinging & therefore reduce clubhead speed.
C. When The Clubface Faces Left
Delivering the clubface "looking left" of the target during impact ("closed" in golf terms) may cause you to swing from the inside-to-outside of the target line in an instinctive attempt to prevent shots from finishing to the left.
Swinging the clubhead in excess from in-to-out will flatten the angle of the clubhead's attack. This can also lead to either fat or thin shots like in #B above.
D. Looking Directly At The Target
Delivering the clubface to the ball directly on target ("square" in golf
terms) is done correctly when the clubhead moves momentarily "along" (rather than across) the target line during impact.
When the swing path momentarily matches the target line during impact, the clubhead should arrive at the ball at just the right angle.
Not too steep nor too shallow. This should deliver the entire force of the blow forward in a perfect line...
