Hint: Hooking: Press A before the color reaches the bottom
line of the swing zone. In other words, swing early and your shot
hooks to the left. Note: How far it hooks depends on how early
you swing. The earlier the swing, the bigger the hook.

Hint: Slicing: Press A after the color reaches the bottom line
of the swing zone. In other words, swing late and your shot slices
to the right. Note: How far it slices depends on how late you
swing. The later the swing, the bigger the slice.
