How do I correct a really bad slice in my golf swing?

October 12th, 2009 | by admin |


I simply corrected mine by changing my grip. I went with a stronger grip….. turning both hands away from the target. I havent sliced a ball since. Its uncomfortable at first but you just have to stay with it. I know there are a ton of ways to ‘correct’ a slice so i’m just giving you one that worked for me. Good luck.

    Keep your head down and dont turn your whole body.

    take parctice swings holding the club in your left hand only from a stance and take a SLOW backwing and pretend you are gonna backhand somone standing directly behind you left shoulder…when you grip your club to hit…grip lightly with your right hand

    Turn your hip before you hit the ball( during downswing)

    Try standing a little further away from the ball. reach for it. play the ball in the middle of your left foot. keep your right elbow next to your body. and swing out toward your target. Finish your swing. reaching for the ball eliminates comming accross your swing plain causing a slace. your ball flight will be higher and more controllable.

    You are swinging out side the line, then trying to correct on the way down.Try cocking your wrist as soon as you lift the club,watch back of ball and FOLLOW THROUGH

    What you are doing is coming from the outside and in causing a severe spin which makes the ball flight go way off to the right. Chances are, your hips are going way to fast and your hands can’t catch up. So, either speed up the hands or slow down your lower body. Another good tip would be to try and keep your right elbow as close to your side as you can which prevents the outside and in approach.

    Go to a golf shop and buy some lead tape.Start with a little on the inside near the shaft and apply as needed. This should help a little.I close my clubface in about 1 or 2 degrees and swing smooth.Just because you swing like Tiger (130 mph) doesnt mean your gonna hit it 350 yds.TEMPO TEMPO TEMPO

    Dont take to much of a back swing.And then have the club face pointing to the hole when you follow through
