Settup, open clubface?

[crucibile]

I am a beginning hitter and have had the best results so far having the clubface slightly open to the target line. Actually perpendicular to the inside path of downswing as I envision it. Is this correct or is this a compensation for something else occurring in my swing? Other wise short irons go left and driver either draws or hooks. Grip is neutral. Thanks

That's the way I do it. Nevertheless, I don't know if it's right or wrong.

The drive out of the #1 Acc. produces an automatic angled hinge, so the recommendation is that the clubface be on the closed side at fix, because the face is laying back faster than it is closing. The more compression the more closing at fix.
