Interestingly, I consider that snap hook problem to be shared only among good hitters. You're probably dropping your shoulder. Be sure both your arms are pointing at the ball at impact, especially your right arm. It needs to be just coming over the top. Keep your right elbow elbow close to your body, but straighten it before you contact the ball.
And hold your head still.
And keep your left arm straight.
And cock your wrist at the top.
And hesitate there briefly.
And keep your eye on the ball.
And follow through.
And keep your hand behind the ball.
And grip the club loosely.
And a bunch of other stuff.
It's actually very easy. Just watch the pros.
