I think I pull the ball when I try to overcook it. If Im hitting within like 120 yards I hit it pretty straight. If Im aiming any further I think I try and swing too hard and the club gets ahead of me... thats just my thinking, but my technique is horrible probably cos Ive never had any instruction and just play as it comes natural and I think golf is too technical a game for that.
The funny thing was, I played awful the whole way, and the last hole was a par 3 about 170 yards over water. Now, this girl Ive been quite good mates with recently was outside of the clubhouse with her mate watching as I came up the 18th... so I hit an ok-ish iron off the tee and carry the water and leave myself about 15 yards short of the green (that being one of the top 5 tee shots Id played all day)... walk up and chip it to a couple of feet and then roll in the putt... she was well impressed and said she didnt realise how good I was: but I told her I'd dropped a couple of shots on the way round and finished "a few" over par. I hope I never end up in a situation where she gets to see me play golf again and realises Im actually shit!
