Correcting Slice – Is It Possible?

For many golfers the frustration of seeing your ball slice to the right on a regular basis is too much to handle often resulting in slamming your clubs into the ground in anger – or kicking your bag!.

Fortunately and un-fortunately there are many factors that can cause the slice, Fortunately because all these things can be fixed, when identified.

And un-fortunately because identifying them is the hard part and with the vast number of training aids and professional opinions that all seem to differ it can leave the golfer not knowing which way to turn for advice.

That was the position I was in, I had a slice for around 10 years that was until I found a system that lead to me correcting slice.

A problem that i suffered from and what was helping to cause my slice shots was not lining up correctly with the ball.

It’s common sense that if you are not lined up correctly you will not be able to hit the ball in the direction you want it to travel.

The good news is that if you suffer from not lining up correctly it is quite easy to fix and even easier to diagnose.

Firstly when you line up to hit a ball get a buddy to place an iron at the end of your feet, then step back and have a look at the direction your feet are pointing.

When you look down the club on the floor if it points in the direction you want the golf ball to travel in you are lining up correctly. If the club is not lined up correctly this is going to cause some problems with your game and needs addressing asap. The way i was told to fix the issue with not lining up correctly was to go to the range and put a golf club on the floor pointing straight down the range and then line your feet up to it. At first this will seem strange but you will soon get used to it, after long you will line up to the ball correctly and hopefully this will go some way to correcting slice shots in your game.

You can also use this technique when you next play on the course, you may look a little silly but at least you will be lining up to the golf ball correctly and hopefully hitting the ball straight down the fairway.

I hope this article has been helpful to you, if you want to know more about how I fixed my slice please click here correcting slice.

I wish you all the best in your quest of becoming a better golfer.
