    When you slice the ball, your swing path is outside to in, or over the top. Try this drill: Take a club (like a 7 iron) and just take practice swings with it, in your yard or wherever. Don’t hit a ball, just swing the club with your left arm only. Keep your right arm at your side. Concentrate on keeping your head still, rotating your body, and swinging inside to out. Do this drill a lot. The key is to train your body to lead the downswing with your body and left arm. Your right side should be VERY quiet throughout the downswing until impact. When you slice, you are overpowering with your right side.
    Regarding the below answer: yeah there are many factors that can cause you to hit the ball to the right, but a true SLICE is caused by an over the top swing path..the ball will generally start OUT to the left of your intended target and come back right. Now if they are just flaring out to the right from impact, it could be something simple such as ball placement or grip.

    At first I didn’t want to answer this question. It is because there are so many factors in producing a slice ball flight without you intended for it. Generally, an answer would be because there’s something wrong with your swing, which could be your hitting line, outside in; your ball positioning, too far into the front or too far behind; your grip, too week grip; your body, clearing too early; the strength of your grip, too hard on the left hand; or you are only using the left hand to hit the ball (I think your need to use both hands at impact).

    A good and permanent cure is to go the driving range and see a pro, or see a couple of pros. It’s your swing.

    Probably close your stance get your hips through the ball, change your grip……

    Don’t you think if it was easy enough to answer without seeing your swing that there would be many better golfers?
