Thread: Help - Slice

different story for me. i'm doing it with all my clubs . not just the driver... it's just that the driver shows off my bad swing worse than the other clubs .

I posted this recently regarding OTT. I don't have the problem, but saw this the other day. It seems to make sense, when I think about it and visualize the action. The concept that was explained and shown is that you cannot swing OTT, if you first make the shift to the front leg, before swinging your shoulders and body. The shift is accompanied with the "dropping" of the arms on plane in the early...

AGB, Back again after a few weeks lol. I have been playing absolutely shocking. I got my new official handicap of 3 at my golf club and was thinking of doing the PGA teaching degree to turn pro I was playing that well, then had about 2 weeks off and completely lost my swing. I am swinging over the top so badly its untrue resulting in snap hooks, pulls and slices. I am hitting the range tomorrow morning to work the kinks out. I have come to the...

The two things I always check when I start to hit a few slices are as follows, for right handers:- First would be to slightly roll the right wrist over just before impact to ensure I am getting the club face square at impact instead of wide open. I other problem could be that your grip is too weak causing the same problem of an open club face at impact. To fix this I would turn my left wrist when gripping the golf club slightly to the right...

make sure your backswing is not a backswing but a "takeaway" one way to prevent the fast backswing is to put another ball behind the ball you are about to strike making sure the ball behind the golf club does not move more that a meter, once you get right you will note that your path is much better, other than that make sure your "release" the ball very early in your "downswing"

How can I get my shift to front leg without the diving. Thanks Dant The Ritter video is fine, as far as it goes, but alone it will not fix your problem. Without the proper body action, you will be contorting and flailing around trying to get the club to come...
