Much like overcoming the slice, the hook can be corrected by changing basic fundamentals in your game.

Tip 1: The Stance

Place the ball in the center or a little forward in your stance. Most golfers who hook the ball place the ball too far back in their stance. Keep the ball in the middle or even with your left heel (if you’re right-handed; right heel if your left-handed).

Be certain you place your feet in the direction of your target line. Both of the tips of your toes should be even, or a little to the left of the target line. This more open stance will help reduce the chances of hooking the golf ball. Don’t place your left foot ahead in your stance. Keep your feet even.
